Weather meant no Scillies trip...But

Mrs, M and myself would also like to thank Jeff ('Kernow') and the Gang for looking after us so well! You certainly have a Top Notch opperation going on there!! AND, In a great location!We both agreed the best camp site we've stayed on,great facility's, and beautifuly kept! Looking forward to visiting again with ALL the familey.Maybe get you out in that boat next time mate!!
Incidently whilst myself and the ''Unhinged One'' were playing after launching at 'Penmarlem' my wife sussed out there is a very good, Free slip, in the car park at Fowey,whith a trailer park,and while you have to obviuosly pay parking,it negates the need to cross on the Ferry which at £7.50 EACH way [whith the Trailer],pluss launching fee's at Penmarlem could mount up. Town slip could well be a better option, certainly easier,and may well be best value.
Still looking to get to the Scillies soon, so Avocet and Co, whach this space!

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated
Great to meet you all, sorry I couldn't get out (well I was until I saw the pic's!) I think from now on whenever I see posts from Matt I'll be reading it as Madd H !
You would all be very welcome again, Rib wise I'd hope to get out in June, July and August she goes on her 'winter' mooring
