A superb article from which...........

it's obvious that none of those involved in the aqua based incidents had attended a Professional Powerboat Training Course in Pwhelli.

Daniel,

If yoo'd be kind enough to send me the uncensored version of that Photo I'll see that it has a correct entry on Boatmad in the Rib Section.

It was good to meet you all again and really good to meet new people. Yes the Jackeens do know how to throw a party party

Reading the telegraph article i guess if a 76 year old swimmer goes missing off Lands end in a gale force wind then that's possible the way he wanted to go!

Reminds me of the old joke ' I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my Grandfather and not screaming in terror like his passengers

Cheers
Stuart

You can't have the uncensored version, Paul is worried the men in white coats will find out where he lives

Not waving but dancing...

Thank you Daniel.

Nice vid as well...streamed very well. Sorry we didn't reciprocate but I was hanging on for dear life

Waver...behave. And it's a HEDGE.
And the other items mentioned were a child's FISHING ROD and an item for MASSAGE ... all innocent items.

I was almost comatose at work today...but with many happy memories

Missus

R & L...thanks for the flags too...how thoughtful!!!

Daniel,

Have you thought about trying php gallery for your pics? - it auto-generates the thumbnails, medium sized images, and leaves the original size pics there for choosing.

I've got it installed on our servers locally here in Pembs, and also on our London servers, and it runs very fast, and saves bandwidth with the smaller thumbnails

Unfortunately, my gallery is served locally with only 190kbps upstream, but one day I'll shift all 700meg to London.....

-Alex

Great weekend, thanks to P and K for looking after us so well! Lovely to put faces to some names. Interesting conditions in the Solent. Not through choice! Thanks to Daniel, Tappy and the 'Fender' for keeping us company.
Brilliant BBQ, looking forward to returning the favour at NWR clubhouse soon. Hopefully we will see some of you before then.
