Going to be a bit pricey with the crap £ to $ exchange rate. I have a couple thousand us dollars in cash from work but due to family circumstances had to cancel trip to Appalachia. Now have Channel Islands instead. Not bad but not what I'd wanted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 We have over 100 young people coming for a taster session on sailing. My wife and I are on safety boat duty and the forecast is looking brilliant. We shall probably spend more time chucking them in than hauling them out. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
