All I need some help down at the club on Friday to move the Bar drinks cooler up the stairs and generally clean up before the carpet fitters come in. It is my aim to have all my bar work finished by 9pm Friday. Things that will need doing: Behind the bar: o Glasses Washed …
Those of you contemplating doing the Shakedown Cruise on the w/e 2 & 3 April may like to contact me (Peter Lockwood 01989750396) for details, advise etc. (it would also be good for me to know numbers too). The plan is to picnic on Langford Sands before going to Thornbury to camp for the night …
New Members and those that need a refresher course on what to do when given an OOD (Officer of the Day) duty, a Safety Boat duty and those that need to know the ‘Lydney’ Racing Rules need to turn up at 1000 hours Sunday 27 March at the clubhouse. Other subjects can be raised and experience …
I’m pleased to report that Annabel’s impromptu work party this weekend has resulted in some good work at the club. The front of the building has been painted including the new door, ladies loo fixed, bar shelving nearly completed. There is still a lot of tidying up to be done when the work is completed …

Hedley and I delivered the new large drinks cooler to the club tonight to find the carpet fairies had started laying the underlay for the new carpet. Only slight issue is that Hedley is still sawing wood and MDF for the new bar and if the new carpet is down it will get very messy …
