Next Thursday at Pwllheli sounds like a good plan. I will be in criccieth next week. It would be great to put faces to logins !

Nice 1 sarge lets watch the weather and we can come up with a meeting time and place closer to the day

Nice one martin- great pics- hope Karl managed a trouble free re-entry. A few have mentioned that we could do with a saftey session day- re-entry in particular. Karl has another example of gear on the sea bed.
We need to think of more ways to keep the gear afloat if that happens.
So its looked like it was such a good day you couldn't face anymore fish so had to have the Gammon instead !
Happy days
