The last two times have been Southampton to East Cowes, but Pompey is not a problem. We could meet you off the ferry at Fishbourne if you let us know what time you will be there. Group bookings were discussed last time and the ferry merchants werent interested.

Meeting at Southampton is better I think as there's a convenient big carpark next to the port, and you get more of a ferry ride. The child in me enjoys a good ferry ride.

I tried for something, however I do remember that if we are a "sporting club" we could probably arrange something.

They were not interested in a social club

Just make up a name of a sporting club and wear your briches and a deer stalker hat and you should be good to go

Come on Em, I'm thinking about changing the date at this rate!

Does somebody want to organise the ferry booking thing then as we are a venturing sports club

I can't be relied upon to do it I'm afraid as I have too much on at the moment.

I have asked them in an email what they can do.

PS: To keep numbers accurate, I've taken Rich out the list following his accident. Hopefully he'll be up and running again by 16th Feb, but until then.

1) Pix - Poss 2 for lunch at a fantastic pub again
2) TeflonTom + SWMBO
3) Scoobychris + Lynn + Little Jess (possibly) so 2 for lunch
4) Cheezemonkhai - Poss 1 for lunch

Is this still going ahead or is the threat of high winds going to mean it's being postponed?
