Good idea, Huw. I might try the fish pie this time.

[quote="Amy"]So long as there aren't any football or other major sporting events on that involve (mostly) blokes drinking loads of booze, making an awful racket and generally doing stupid things.


I'm sure we'll be able to keep ourselves amused, whether or not there is a sporting event on :lol: .

Oh yes, must remember to fast for a week beforehand to make sure I can eat the dinner.

Ah yes - I'd forgotten that fish pie. Or should I say that potato-case suitcase full of fish

Not much 'sneaking' as I recall - the break went on the climb before Cowes and like all breaks you were either in it or you weren't :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I think the first one meant that there was only one chain ferry, and the second that we'd have to wait a couple of minutes before it got back. The third I took to mean we should get ourselves a coffee while we waited.

That's that version of events I remember. I'm sure Chris and Brian concur 8)

Great idea. I'd go back there like a shot.

This year we'll bring along a walking companion for Sarah. He can help out with the lamb hotpot as well:

Let's hope Mr Bugle doesn't charge us triple this year :?
