3rd December 2015

3rd December 2015.

A cold and windy day at the lake but didn't deter the regular Thursday crowd!

Gone to the Pub??, don't think so, more like the Cafe for a hot drink and a Sausage buttie, is your boat here?.

Eric's Model Slipway 10 hatch coaster.

Nice mover as are all Model Slipways model's!.

A new bench put in the other day in front of the Yacht Clubs landing stage, think these are by private subscription as the Council don't seem to be putting much in the kitty these days though are quite happy to take our yearly fees aren't they!.

 

The recent bad weather has certainly raised the water level in the river and as you can see its quite rough down there.

Wet Thursday,Nov 2015.

It was a windy,wild and wet Thursday for the TT Lads this week (Tuesday/Thursday) 

There were the usual team there but as you can see from this picture some were in the clubhouse for lunch.

  These three were headed to the Cafe for a sausage buttie break and even though the prices have gone up this week it's still worth it in this weather and it's not looking as though it's going to get better any time soon!.

It was nice to see Bob on the right there, back after his trip to the hospital, even after his slight stroke, he looks better that the other two doesn't he!.

Don't forget to get out your photo's taken at the lake or perhaps at one of the shows during the year, for this years photo competition at the next club meeting!
