Ok, who is sad enough to have next years diary already.............. other than me Yes, I know we're not out of 2009 yet, but going on from the playtime this year, next year's Watery Playtime has been booked for Saturday 3rd July 2010. Marion has said if we can get at least 50 people, she can arrange a full day of sailing, kayaking, dragon boating and raft building if we want it. I know some people may have been put off by the distance, so I have arranged for us to have access to the base Friday evening to sleep over, play on Saturday then anyone not wanting to go straight home but get a decent'ish rest can stay on the base (or failing that, at a nearby Scout hut) Saturday night and go home Sunday. Not interested in numbers yet - just thought I'd let you know ;D

Having met you now Scrab - I'm not sure I have the energy for such an exciting day and for being your partner in crime, but it's an interesting proposition. Would there be space for a caravan on the base? Might be interested and could run some bacon sarnies from the van as a side line too. ;D

Vera and I were talking about this on the way back from Australia, we think we're interested though Vera being a non poor swimmer might not want to so much do the boat thing as just sit on the bank and watch. Would that be ok?

Candy - possibly, I'll check with Marion
Mahatt - not a problem, we had some people this year who came and didn't sail. We can just take Vera out in a safety boat if she does want to go out on the water at some point ;D

I'm certainly interested as well, Scrab. I'm supposed to be canal "digging" at Heybridge that weekend but I'm sure they can manage without me for a day!
By then I'll have got some sailing practice on the Caledonian Canal!
