[Captain Chaos]

All,

Providing that all goes to plan re foootball, boat & work this week...i'll attempt to rear my bald head!

Of course its more likely that:

West ham will win the playoffs, squadron-leader Porky will fly over my house and me mates horse will turn out to be a unicorn,

....than me actually getting down to the sarth coast.....but i'll try!(Though I do warn you, i'm known as a pesky-old-woman chatterbox!)

otherwise i'll be scrounging for a ride in one of the near-future events.

BTW, been on the water all day, absolutely feckin brill! I've gone froma cue-ball to a nice tommy-red! Me bad hamstring held up on the ski's...well pleased!:wink: :up: :) ;p;

[jackeen's Missus]

It would be so good to meet you finally Lawrence...hope you can make it

Missus
:up:

[Jon Fuller]

Just you, or will you be bringing 'HIM' with you?

[bogib]

:D :D :up: :hugegrin:

[Captain Chaos]

I think with ++:drink: and a little persuasion!

mind you his capes in the cleaners!

[Jon Fuller]

:D :D

Missus, you need to see "The Cannonball Run"

[Captain Chaos]

Its funny how i'm probably thought of as a Dom delouise nut or something.........CB is the type of film i've seen dozens of times @ 1.30am when i've got in from a seesion!

The only reason i chose the name was coz i intially wanted some annonimety when i 1st posted here.....................all cloak & daggers!!

converting to plain 'Lawrence' would be a bit homo now!

[/QUOTE]

I thought you had an active imagination (from your posts!!!)

Just trying to be friendly & positive... :)

Seriously...

My wishful thinking is that people would get together and talk to each other in real life sometimes and mebbe even go out in the boats 'stead of always yakkin about them...

(I don't really find it easy to ask strangers if they'd join us for this or that !!!!! but by doing that we have met some great peeps ...and there is always another boat to go out with which is so wonderful :up: :up:...yesterday Jackso was free & so were some peeps we met last time so off they all went round the Isle of Wight... :cool:!!!)

we've already had a couple of hardboat/RIB encounters...Graham F did a brill job of escorting us out of Littlehampton...
:up: :up: :up:

Missus :seaman:

(Bit of disappointment in real life BTW ...ask the Boss...he has good records :D )

[Rogue Wave]

Missus is good at doing all that stuff cos she's bossy!

:aaahhh:

[Jon Fuller]

She's lulling you into a false sense of security!

Allright then Matt....lets settle on quite assertive and I wont mention anything about a big banjo.

[jackeen's Missus]

Hi there!!!

Yes it was a wonderful day.

Thank you so much Vicki And Matt for such a lovely time from start to finish...

Once again it was a happy gathering of RIBNET Boatmadders or Boatmad RIBNETters or peeps who just like boats:D

SO fantastic to meet friends again and make some new ones...

SO many great memories...

seeing everyone clustered in Osborne Bay in the sunshine

going for a 'blast' in the Solent

first glimpse of Carlos' new raceboat (A-MAZING)

Will Kennett 'going for' the throttle on Zebedee and all of us saying 'splishy splashy' all the way up Pompey harbour :D

The Fullers went RIBBING!!! The Kennett family sat on a hardboat!!!! (alphabetical order :up: )

Sundowners on the deck of Distant Rumble (Port Solent)

All round one big table at Cafe Uno...

Boat grins

JF phoning TD in Madeira to check if they'd beaten a certain racer!!!!

Baby Florence calming to the soud of Distant Rumble :D

Mr. 2 arranging for Distant Rumble to be 'pulled' in Pompey Harbour!!! :laugh:

Bogib phoning us in Cafe Uno!!! :up:

I quite liked the parmesan grater...maybe it was just me :dizzy:

Going back down the harbour in the dark ... following Terminator!!!

A magic day...we had such a great time...

Will get photos organised soon...but lots of peeps had cameras...

It was reasonably lumpy out there so I took no action shots but I think others managed some...

See you all again soon hopefully

The Happy Oul Jackeens

Of course it is.....it was spelt phermetically, foamentically, firmantickly, erm the way i heard it.

[jackeen's Missus]

Fantastic phonetics actually as most peeps find the Oirish sounds difficult (means Peter in QHM speek)
The Irish name for the gArfish for example is 'fEkker'.

Missus (prop name : Caitlin):wave:

As antyone who has tried to pronounce Dunlairy the way it is spelt would surely testify

[termite]

Matt, great boat and deffinately an Icon, don't you dare change that internal lighting its a classic.

Thanks for throwing the party and drinks on the quarter deck as the sun went down over Port Solent, brilliant.

My one question though, why when JF steps on a boat does the stern always look so low down. Its true, look the camera doesn't lie and its not just one boat his does it too!

Even Rogue Wave doesn't have that effect on a boat.

It was in my RIBnobbers jacket you nobby lot, (fortunately I haven't needed the RIBnobber jacket since my Flume ordeal)

Hi Matt, looks like you had a good time then :drain: Where the "fuz" stopped you there should have been an orange bouy 50m out from the quay.

Nothing to do with me honest :well: - it's just that they get VERY twitchy about peeps getting too close to HM's marina.

If you had followed Missuss instead of going on your own harbour cruise then I could have pulled you for having a hardboat instead of a RIB :duell: You would have had the last laff though as although my blue light went round & round there was no bulb in it. More test to pass before they give me one:cry:

Sorry I could not make it to PS - very :snooz: and terrified of having the leg pulled:wotzhapni .

Good to meet HRH JK at last - your 'umble servant sir :worthy: :worthy:

See most of you next w/e. (no blue light though - now there's a thought - where's the West Marine catalogue)

Pete

PS Please Mr F can I have a couple of BM stickers for a well known boat?

Hello all

Rumble Queen has arrived! It was really great to meet you all yesterday. I really enjoyed my first proper day out on DR despite having to tell Matt to 'fecking slow down' :bang: a few times!!

Matt has obviously had too much sun :dizzy: - he meant our next trip out will be 12/13 JUNE. Hope to see you all then.

Indeed and likewise for Tifino. I have 2 old oars as well though but they won't get me home for sure. I'd be better off swimming and pulling it behind me. arf

[robin]

Mrs...what's the American website that my pics are/were/will be
posted on?

[robin]

Originally posted by jackeen's Missus
Bit unfair really...I didn't get any pics of Tifino in action...terrified to take the camera out going along...must get swish w'proof one at some stage

Missus

A very kind thought, but I prefer to take 'em rather than be in 'em

[jackeen's Missus]

Sorry Matt, I get a bit confused as to which site I'm on sometimes (or which planet even :dizzy: ) trying to keep up with The Missuss' postings :bolt:

Pete http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/aktion/action-smiley-028.gif

[robin]

Ta for that. Logging in now.....here's a link for you re the waterproof camera. Hope the link works. It is a good camera. Waterproof to 60m in case of serious splashes.

[bogib]

Nice smilie with the blue light on top :up: :up:

[Tosspot2]

SC fancies the idea of a blue light on the A-frame. Have to keep it covered though except in special circumstances (like chasing PWC's :angry: or getting to the pub first). :drink: Must check the regs about them and chat to Bogib at Ribex:D :D

She is determined to find an excuse to buy that hat. So if you young free and single;

"Watch out, watch out, there is a Missus about"

You shouldn't have to follow old Spice any more, with the mileage you two are doing you should be writing the Boatmad guide to the Solent shortly. ::seaman:

[Admiral P. Brain]

Looks like you all had a good time, sorry we couldnt make it got caught up in local boating activity on sunday... hopefully next time!!

[jackeen's Missus]

Sorry not to have met you lot too...

But it was a bit lumpy:aaahhh:

You should be able to hook up with Matt & Vicki next time & have some fun:D :up:

Missus

[Admiral P. Brain]

Matt how was she running?? you need to make a trip to see the delights of poole harbour and the local beaches soon !!??

[Carl]

mebbe on the 13th to see some racin

[Admiral P. Brain]

June 13th what racing??

[Admiral P. Brain]

Best way to go ease you all in gradually!!

yes theres nothing worse than sloppy drives, I believe sometime the play can be in the steering. We have a little bit in ours now and Tony says we could just replace the teleflex steering for 30-40 quid each year!!

[jackeen's Missus]

Carl, where did you get to at the folly? We looked for you on the way out and there was no sign, but Missus said you were still there? If we left you behind, that was really shitty and I sincerely apologise.


Terrible...left y'all alone for an hour and you go and ditch Carl & his brother...

I phoned him from Port Solent to invite them down for grub & he said he he'd been in the garden area of the folly 'catchin rays'...
Then he saw you all disappear down the river.

Good riddance (he probably thought) & went on to enjoy the rest of the afternoon!!!!

Hope to see you soon again with that flashy boat C.

Missus :wave:

[Carl]

you are all forgiven,as for racin its the poole cancer charities race on the 13th of june from the royal motor yacht club,race start from bournemouth pier,will let people have times etc when i get the race instructions

[Carl]

[robin]

Excellent

[Jon Fuller]

Oi, JK, did Witeshoooz teach you how to trim a boat?

[Johnny Rocket]

That shot was taken in the middle of Jackso showing Will how the trim control worked. Anything to keep him off the throttle! :D

[jackeen]

Yah - he burnt the motor out - have just finished fitting it for next weekend

Mind ya the baba was as good as gold ;p; ;p;

[Jon Fuller]

I've just noticed a post (pic 5 in my collection) seems to have vanished!....very strange

Did you mean this one? :bolt: :duell: :wotzhapni

[bogib]

T2 you are getting yourself into trouble (you can be expelled from BM)

:up: :up: :no: :duell::D

[Jon Fuller]

Strangely enough, yes, that's the one, did you steal it?

[Tosspot2]

No, but perhaps the piccys should be moved to The Gallery.:well:

You might find it will return after the weekend. :bolt:
