PS: unfortunately this year i have to travel on my own, Daniel can't come and Joerg told me he has no boat :(

What happened to the huge model of Lulonga that Joerg was building?

Hans, if Yoerg needs a boat he can use one of mine on the day, probably the "Wee Lorne".

Only 9 weeks to go until the big day now - So start getting those models ready for the water! Lets make this the biggest and best Paddler Day ever!!

For those that are travelling large distances, it's probably time to make hotel bookings etc if you haven't already done it?

Regards
Eddy

There are only six weeks now until Paddler Day 2011 - Where does all the time go? It doesn't seem two minutes since we had the 2010 show!

Wouldn't ya know  :darn  Just as well I had my GLASGOW on the water today for a steering event - it came out with 400ml of water inside, I know because I sucked it out with a 50ml syringe.   :goodnews I found the leak   :darn  but it's right in the bow where fingers can't reach.  Still I have plenty time to figure it out   :thinking and effect a repair before paddler day.

I'm all set Bob. The bits for the 'Bring 'n Buy' are sorted and 'Inchcolm & its Tx charged and ready to paddle. I'm also fasting in preparation for Saturday's curry with Eddy, Hans etc. Let's hope the weather is good - that would be a change for this year.
