Sounds great. Didn't know there was one next door! Do you have any more details?

Bloomin daft question There will be me, Luke, Bethany and Aiden. We hope to bring both canoes. But your company is always appreciated and looked forward to.

I'm going to split this thread, as i appear to have hijacked Pauls.

Me and Tracy will be there
Coniston seems very fitting after all its where C-waV was born on the brew stop against that boat house near the top end that's got to be our birthday pic

I will get some pics when I am up that way this afternoon

Will try my best to get an overnighter from the Sat to Sun past the Board of Control. I'd love to make it .

Please Can I Come Kite?

It'd be great if you could Graeme. You would be most welcome. We ain't paddled together for such a long time!

Hope you can Greame
