Thumbs up What about this bash then?

Hello all,

I seem to remember a plan to meet on the 18th October at the Founders Arms on the South Bank until we got kicked out and then move on to Doggetts.

Think boats came into it somewhere too.

I've been asked to resurrect this plan - I'm still up for it!

Weather will probably be terrible for flying and we'll need cheering up! So how about it?

Excellent!

I don't know, over 90 views and only 3 replies - what a bunch of wusses! Obviously scared they can't keep the pace!

Yes, I know. I would come, but I'll be far far away celebrating a certain milestone birthday. Like I said, I'll sip a few glasses of pink champagne and think of you all sitting by the river in the pouring rain.

I'm intending to come along - "nothing known to affect" at this stage.

Cheers

Thumbs up

Ah Keef, all these things are relative.

Every milestone has its merits. At least you can not do a James Dean!



Happy Birthday mate!

Now we come to the EASA debate.
Now that JAR/JAA will be taken over by EASA.
EASA being european law and therefore over rules
any ANO/CAA ruling. This may change things.

T,

You are undoubtebly correct. But I fail to see what impact this will have on the intended pi$$up or Keef's birthday.

FD - that's two posts by you on this thread now. But you still haven't said whether you're actually coming along or not? So will we see you there?

Keef - happy birthday, we'll be having a drink for you! (And don't forget that the bash was originally billed as Penguina's birthday bash too - her birthday is the week before, but she will be staying relatively sober on the day as she'll be at the Caenarfon fly-in, and will need to make up for it the next weekend!)

Thanks, FD! Look after the sky for me while I'm on holiday, will you?

Maybe EASA is starting in Hungary? I'll look out for a bloke in a suit while I'm supping my champagne in Keszthely.


Penguina - have a good one! Enjoy the scenery round Caernarfon when you go there. Great place to fly!


FFF - you can never tell with FD. He turns up in all sorts of places and in all sorts of aircraft. I've met him on many an apron in my time... and in the odd pub.

FFF,

Unfortunately unlikely to get a pass for the 18th but hope to make it to Caernarfon.

Have aeroplane and a few Dutch mates coming over so only 2 Ws left that can throw us of course!

Appreciate that most of these bashes gravitate towards London but it makes it a bit more difficult for those living in the Midlands to attend.

Believe me it is not for lack of desire!

I'll be there. Shepherding people towards the boat at some point, if everyone's still up for it.
