Holiday Guernsey 2009

[Old Man Dave]

I think we should avoid the angling 4 day comp. Just out of respect for our worm drowning bretheren.

Neap tides are good for night diving in summer. Low tides at 8 -10pm and day diving is do-able although going "further out" for flats is usually too deep.

At the end of the day it's a bit dependent on weather and vis as well. If everyone enjoyed last year despite the awful conditions then this year can only get better whatever the tide.

Looking forward to it.

Dave

Sorry to have been absent for a few days! I'm very flexible on dates; the sooner I book the better so as to get cheap flights and accomodation etc. I will be coming with Camilla and Lola so it makes no real difference to us so long as I get holiday booked early enough at work; June, July, August, September........whenever, we are currently very flexible!

July 11th would be really good for me.
Come over on the 10th and home on the 15th?
Juan how are these dates for you?

Paul i dont think all of the schools have broken up for summer hols by then (not here anyhow) my lad finishes term on the 17th July. I guess you'll need some input from OMD ref his term dates tho:

 

[Old Man Dave]

No I don't finish 'til Friday 17th.

In that case my next suggestion would be the later part of August, if the bass comp finishes on the 24th (Monday) then from the 25th to whenever the schools go back?

 

[Old Man Dave]

Mon 7th Sept. Back to work.

Works for me Arrive on Tuesday 25th and leave on Friday 28th, which will still leave the Bank Holiday weekend to spend with the Family so everybody at home will be happy.
How about everybody else? Any other suggestions?

I am OK with that - not the best tides because low is around tea time but on the other hand the fish will be fresh for supper
I guess we could adjust our lifestyle & get up at 10am & stay up till 2am :friday
Seriously low tide at 6pm on a neap tide will be very good for hunting bass in the shallows & I guess you could arrive on the 24th if you wanted?
So every body say "I" ?

Sorry for the double post but I thought I’d just tell anybody that’ll be looking for accommodation that The St George Hotel is already fully booked for August, so if you need accommodation it might be better to hurry up and find somewhere as it seems that the more value for money spots are going fast.

 

[foxfish]

Podge did you manage to get in though?
