The guy who bought my rib was telling me about a tractor launch in carnarvon for £10 a day, any ideas where abouts that is? He did say he'd email me details but haven't heard from him since. I love the swellies, great stretch of water. When I'm back a float I'll be there

Fred,
I might join you launching from Connah's Quay. I've never been out from there before so it would be a nice blast.
Are you planning to join the raid up to Chester?

Sounds like a fun trip, iv never been up the lower part of the dee even though i live here. Theirs a petrol station about 50meters from the weir aswell so only a short distance, i may even be able to ask the father to do fuel runs if it was necessary.
