something a little different...

I am planning on doing a Powerboat Handler Level 2 course in November down at Fathom and Blues in Weymouth

http://www.fathomandblues.co.uk/rya-courses.htm

anyone else fancy it? £230 for the weekend - you get to learn how to race around in boats safely, practise picking up "divers", man overboard drill, basic navigation and sea safety

Not really sure why I am doing it, just thought it would be a laugh, good fun and maybe I can take you all out in my dad's boat for some freediving next summer if I have this under my belt.

Something different for the autumn? Let me know if you are interested.

i want to try and make it out to the UK next summer for Womad 2006... will definitely bring the fins and might invest in a cuddly Elios... and participate in whatever you've got going on!
 
Womad? Really? I went to a couple of womads back in the mid eighties, Brilliant but I did have a fag in my mouth rofl

been to Womad once - bit too "world" for me - more of a Glasto girl myself!

and there might have been a smoke in my mouth but it was NOT a cigarette!

(and not these healthy days, just buckets of cider)

Like a bit of a thrash myself louder the better but I'm a good girl now
 
back to business - anyone want to do a powerboat course?

(loud music optional, spliffs probably not a good idea!)
 
I'll stick to sails and paddles ! engines are only for getting in and out of harbour !
 
OK apparently we should do this in Falmouth - my folks live down there so we could put some people up if necessary - anyone keen? sometime mid/late November?
