The Summer of Spain

Given the success of Spain in Wimbledon and the World Cup this year we have decided to continue the Summer of Spain with our social event on the Saturday night.

With a specially made Paella, Sangria and a purpose made beach (well it is a sand & gravel pit after all) all we will need is the sun and some Senora's and Senorita's to complete the scene.

So pack your Sombrero's and your Flamenco guitars and don't forget to check your castanets.

Sunday night will be an all you can eat BBQ because,

"We supply the heat but you supply the meat".

Fresh burgers, buns and bangers will be available for purchase on the night from the galley but you can bring your own if you wish. Please also feel free to provide your own refreshments on both nights although the rear commodore is a generous chap who may share some of his own personal supply with you in return for a donation to his favourite charity.

All details together with booking forms will be in the skippers packs to be sent out shortly. Please ensure you register and send your payment to confirm your entry so we get a good idea of numbers.

Rumour Mill 4

Rob Walsh is confident he has found a boat, just not sure which one yet. If not he is willing to sell his services as "pit crew" and beer taster to the highest bidder.
