Tuesday,25th.4.2017.

Nice and sunny there on the day, but don't be fooled it was very cold and after taking these pictures was walking round the lake with Pepe and it started to SNOW!.
So the sailors on the day spent more time in the Cafe and Clubhouse, and who could blame them, its quite a cold corner on the landing stage, with the wind blowing down the big lake!.

"J" Classes  seems to have given way to One metres!.

Jet washing!.12.4.017.

If you were thinking of going to the lake sailing with your grandchildren on
 Wednesday 12th April 2017, be advised that the landing stage will be being Jet washed around about 10-00am!.
The decision was made on a Wednesday as most members sail on Tuesday or Thursday and no one on Wednesdays, if you had thought of going this Wednesday make it the afternoon.
Sorry for any inconvenience!
 Al the Comm.

This week at the lake,6.4.2017.

Wednesday.

After a pleasant morning at the lake chatting with friends and then checking out the landing stage where there was one of the members with his Grandchildren. 


Nice well behaved young men, had a boat each that Granddad had made for them, though I was told that they helped as well, that's what we need in the club, or else what will become of the club when all us old codgers go to that big pond in the sky!



This was Granddad's boat, all high tech with his camera mounted on the front!.

Then as its school holidays, I left the lake early so I wouldn't be locked in with all the Grandparents bringing the kids for lunch at the cafe!
Good news for the Cafe, keeps it open, nothing sadder than a boarded up Cafe is there!.

Thursday.

There was I thinking that Eric didn't eat much and look at his lunch box on the right there!

A motorised boat on our lake.


Whilst some of the sailors were sailing their "J" and "One Metre's" on the big lake!.

Looks like sausage bap time on the landing stage!.

Why do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds on the drive and put our junk in the garage?.

Why do supermarkets make sick people walk to the back of the store to get their prescriptions, whilst the healthy ones can buy cigarettes at the front?. 

Why don't you ever see the headline "Psychic wins lottery"?.
