Three Scorpion Stings should be joining us on the Sat night as a stop off on their way to Brest, I think?

Anyway, SCORPION STINGS!

Anyone stayed at the Troytown Campsite?
Yes in a kayak its ok you can carry it over the rocks its lovely wild spot with sublime views but nowhere to moor a rib safely where you can watch it and if the weather turns you are wide open to the sea it's a hell of a place to be if its even moderately rough . You would have to leave the boat near the pub in porth conger and carry you kit across the island to the camp site . Iam not sure what its like to anchor in porth conger either
Bryher is the best place if you want to camp or st Mary.s has a sheltered harbour . Hope the weather holds for you it will be lovely out there now

No need, there are plenty of ribs bobbing along on here already.

A vid of from The Fraggle Rock when the Doom is going down would be more interesting.

Do any of the Plym launch crew have any spare berths by any chance? I could be heading for a more peeps than seats situation.

A pal from the borough is hoping to come in his dive spec. Humber if he can get work cover which would ease the numbers issue.

Does doom refer to the ale or the happy landlord when you turn up for last orders having already had a few at the campsite
