As it looks like my hectic social calendar is open that weekend I'll be popping along, probably with a selection of dogs.
This year I promise to contribute something better than the empty offer to help with breakfast as I did last year. My only excuse is that the hangover was not induced by Boatboy!
I can't wait to see you all again and meet new members, it really is a most special event.

Plum,
Dont blame Steven for the wrong year, I blame Richard as he edited it last and should have noticed it, or did notice it and changed it

Sixteen boats and forty one formites signed up already - Impressive
'B.A' and crew (Ten of us) + Macie Dog minus gun (As she will NOT be tending a litter of pups this year) will be in attendance.
That is assuming that we make it back from our southern excursion, if we ever get there in the first place of course  as it will be only be a fortnight or so after our return to the the playground.

Well I'm insulted that Steve didn't notice that it was me who did the quiz with Mike last year.
I think he is living in a bit of a time warp.

For a BBQ... unless anyone has a better idea... I could buy one... e.g. (after 15 seconds of research)

and take the cost out of the donations made on the day.

As a "furriner" I'm wondering whether being called a "plum" is a compliment or otherwise...

I think the BBQ that are normally used are the gas fired type as more control.
I just eat the stuff that comes off so no expert
