Port Meirion - North West Ribsters - 16th October - Page 5

Great weekends ribbing, thanks Jono for all your efforts.

What a great turn out it was. So nice to meet so many keen enthusiastic ribsters.

We had a great time and one of the highlights was arriving at Barmouth at dusk, under a full moon. If we had followed Me Me into Barmouth we would all have been stuck on the sandbank

At moments like that it's best to rely on your GPS rather than your friends' instincts

Thanks Dylan and Nickie for your hospitality in Barmouth - it was most welcome at the end of a long day. Sorry you had to get up so early on Sunday.

Jonathan it was very kind of you to give so many of us a blast on that simply awesome Zodiac. Yes, may be one day we could take you up on your kind offer.

Hopefully we'll sort some pictures to follow.

Thanks again everyone.

Sorry its taken so long to post these pictures been catching up on work price you pay for having the weekend of

Many thanks to Jono for organising the Port Meirion trip I dont think anything is to much trouble for that boy

thanks for all the help with everything Jono and also thank you to all the other kind people we met who welcomed us and willingly helped us out

even moving the boat before it dryed out when I had abandoned it on the pontoon in favour of breakfast had a fantastic time weather unreal for October my only dissapointment was there did'nt seem to be enough time to chat and get to know everyone so can'not wait for the next meeting come on Jono
