Large gathering in north wales

just got back from pwllhelli, and the place is buzzzzing with talk of a major
ribbing event taking place. There hasnt been this much excitment since the
Beckhams and peter and Jordan got Hitched. Anybody heard any rumours flying about.

Sounds like the rumours may be true, I heard something about the streets around the town and harbour may be closed off, due to an event that could be happening on water or on land

that makes scence, I would imagine it will take a lot of organising, such a big event.

Do you think there will be a proffessional photographer to catch all the action.

Yeah it will be X rated stuff, also heard Pwllheli may not be big enough, National publicity has been kept to a minimum to prevent gridlock in the town

Beware if you are driving there. Brunstroms camera vans are getting tired of just catching speeding motorists now - people who eat or drink at the wheel will also be prosecuted. And whatever you do don't pick your nose!!!

Thought this was a rib gathering what's the cake for? we usually have mince pies and Coffee with Baileys, at least that's what we did on the Christmas cruise before "Mad Andy" jarred every bone in my petite body and finally threw me in Jono's boat. I understand OK magazine have been turned down.

Petite Thought jono was testing the new rib on the cristmas cruise and it was running a bit bow high, so needed to move some ballast around we couldnt help because somebody else had eaten all the pies
