AJ's Stag Do!

Fist of all congratulations to Alex (AJ) who got engaged to the lovely Sarah on a beach somewhere by moonlight!

But most importantly this gives us a great opportunity to have a stag do! So on 6th/7th Oct (weather permitting) you are invited to join us on a cruise around the Solent area packed with ribbing, fishing and possibly camping / b&b in Cowes too!

Great call Whisper it's about time I get something out of being engaged! As Frodo is off on a jolly with her mates I'm up for a very premature Stag doo!

With the Engagement Ring sorted before the Wedding Ring and then the Suffer Ring takes place I can't think of a better combination than

Bring it on, more the merrier.

Oh and don't listen to Sarah's version of the tale with the moonlight on the sea and all that, I was just very drunk and it seemed a good idea at the time!

Wedding fair this weekend, can't wait

Good work ( Both Alex - one for getting engaged and the other for suggesting on here! ).

If there is a spare seat on a RC can I come along please - does chatting to AJ for 3 minutes qualify ?

Thanks All,

Of course PeterM there is plenty of space.

You don't have to know me to qualify, in fact it would be a great opportunity to meet some new faces.

Take my advice, nice long engagement - longer the engagment, shorter the marriage...

The Plan....

The Folly are kindly letting us camp out the back for free and we can leave the ribs out front for about a tenner...

All the times below are approximate, but this should give you an idea of times if you want to join us for all or part of the weekend.

Sat:

10:00 launch
11:00 Arrive at The Folly and pitch tents
12:30 lunch at The Folly
13:30 Go for a cruise somewhere and do some fishing
17:00 Arrive back at the folly, shower.
18:30 Off to Cowes in one Rib for a beer and a curry!

Sunday:

09:00 Full English at the Folly
10:00 pack up tents
11:00 go on a Cruise somewhere (Trevor G has a few ideas)
17:00 Recover
