I think they start at 10pm, at least they did last year. We are going to head over about 915, it gets pretty busy over there.

Raft typhoons, red arrows

Hi guys/girls

Ok I have checked the Cowes web site and at 7pm there's a RAF Typhoon display, followed by the Red Arrows. A break from 8pm until 930pm when the fireworks start.

We are going to Ryde in the break for Fish and Chips, anyone's welcome to join us, setting off from Gosport at 615/630.

Thanks for the speed notice, sadly I doubt anyone will pay any notice!!

Biffer I'll be in my black and white Banana Shark Rib with the 300xs on the back, called Shamu.

If you see us give us a shout, be good to say Hi :-)

If they don't and cause a crash as a result.. Big fines for them... Just means they CAN enforce large penalties if they have to.
