Hey Mark - it get's dark at 4.00pm that far North. So you will be away by 5.00pm at the latest. It is say 2hrs 15mins to Grafham - less the speed you drive (if we are to believe Liz Rugg when she deduced who drives that yellow torpedo).
Thus you will be home by 7.00pm or 7.30 at the outside.
Q.E.D.
We hope to see you there!
Cheers
Bob
PS were you bored at work today. Quite a lot of EMails!
Bob has I think adequately answered your question - basically the earlier you arrive, the earlier you will get away, but we will aim to start the 1st race by 11 a.m. if everyone who has turned up is ready to go.
P.S. Is it your wife who orders you out of the house ?
P.P.S. Remember we don't have a 'Fat B******' prize up here, but it would be great to see you all the same, and I guarantee you will go home with some free booze, so you can also look forward to a cheap night out !!
What could be better - see you soon.
Bottoms up - Paul Smith 1961 Beaver S.C.
Latest predictions :-
15 knots North-Easterly -but cold .
However this should be just enough to get Mark Aldridge's boat moving - hopefully in a forward direction !
More later
Hi guys
Final weather report much the same as before.
Wind generally Easterly 12 - 15 knots and cold.
Suit you Sir !!
Have a safe journey up and see you Saturday from 9 a.m.
First race at 11.00 if possible.
Just another quick reminder - I shall be at the club from about 4.30 p.m. Friday if anyone needs to drop the boat off.
At the moment, no-one has indicated they wish to stop at the club overnight, so I will not be there all evening.
Any problems just give me or Barrie Hoggard a ring.
Look forward to seeing you all.
Cheers Paul Smith 1961

Hi Mark
Thanks for your comments, much appreciated.
Perhaps your middle name should have been 'Rounding' !
Don't forget to save some of your beer for Christmas(or has it already been consumed), and have a good one. See you in the New Year.
Cheers Paul Smith
