Hey - I am in receipt of the first entry for the Nationals at Thorpe Bay and guess what? It is not Erling. So Erling will be deprived of tally number 1 this year.
Any guesses who it is?
Cheers
Bob

As long as it's not Frank.

My vicar says, "The nearer to church you live, the greater likelihood of your being late for services!"
I bet it's the fellow from Hong Kong!

On second thoughts ----- perhaps Erling's not attending !

I thought I would add a clue a day - as long as the entrant does not let on first! It has got to be better than talking about caravans!!!!!
So today's clue - the entrant lives in the UK North of Shanklin and it is NOT Frank.

We've woke you all up then
My guess is someone with Caravan or a Chip Van
Caravans arnt the only subject but it went off on a tangent and we have got to talk about something
I like the nearer to the Church Bit Andrew

I reckon it's Nick Dewhirst. It defies all logic, because he's normally late for everything!
Nick is a real outside chance. I hope Bob gives me 100:1.

No Andrew,
That would as you say be highly unlikely - we are usually chasing Nick to the last to enter, so it is not him.
Today's clue - the boat in question has had some Steve Sawford work (in common with quite a few others)

That reminds me, Erling. What month is your 71st birthday?

Oh heck - you are a fine judge of character, Erling. It is indeed Charles (Watson). So I guess it is back to the caravans!!!!

PS I had some good cryptic clues coming up too.

Perhaps we should start a book on who will get tally number 2?
Anything is better than caravans!

Hands up, those who have ever owned a caravan.
I had one about 1990. It was a static caravan and it was a bit like Pete Richardson's bus, but without an engine. The only journey it ever made, was to the scrap heap.
Come on, you chaps. Can you ever admit to owning a caravan?
