Seeing as you're all getting so excited about the summer event 2010 thought I'd remind you all that the summer event 2009 is still to happen.
Please come and join us at LLSC.
NoR is at the following link: http://documents.llsc.co.uk/ (http://documents.llsc.co.uk/)
See you there

Forgot to add, expressing an intention to attend on this forum would help with catering camping space planning
Thanks
Gareth
We will be there, 2 adults, 1 child, 2 small dogs (are they allowed?) and a motorhome!
Mrs RM
We will be there, Andy and Clare
either one medium tent, or two small ones please.
Andy
We will be there too probably with our vintage boat N2266 although if it looks wild we may switch to our D8 Squidgy Bits. Apologies we wont be able to stay for the evening due to my crews social commitments but will be back for Sundays racing. Howard C aka Chadders.
Matt & I will be there in 3470 for camping, eating, drinking and oh yes sailing.
Two extra camp followers for Saturday night. Possibly extra boat if I can talk Nigel into dragging 3327 out of his garage in Macclefield where it has been for the last 6 years. Will keep you posted.
Simon
3492 will be there with Graham and Zoe in tow. Two veggies for everything + a tent space please.
Do you know the way Graham? or do you leave the navigating to zoe these days? At least, well I hope, there isn't another club with a similar name.
:)
Hi
We will be attending with 3344 Ella, not able to stay over though, but will be back for sailing sunday.
Eric & Jules
Tim and Yvonne will be there - probably with N2255 or may bring the Baggy for a change. Space for two tents please and catering. Thanks
Kevin and I will be there subject to finding a babysitter and I am not planning on putting my children in a cage!
Jane N3512
STOP PRESS - Spinnaker boat attends open meeting!!
Fantastic Mr Fox will be there with a full set of crews for all weather conditions, space for 2 (small) tents please
I'd like to be there, but see my plea for a helm on separate thread as Paul has other stuff to do that weekend. If I find someone needing a crew, I will also need a tent space please, although within easy driving distance of my APs, I'd rather enjoy the delights of L&L. And for anyone not sure who I am, I was in Dolly Daydream at Burton Week - with 2 different helms!! 8)
Vicky and me will be there, ticking all boxes, tent space, food and drink!
Andy N3481
Hi All,
Thanks for all the positive responses so far. To answer your questions so far:
No, there are no other clubs nearby with a similar name, but it sounds like there's a story behind that posting!
Dogs are permitted, as are children.
Just to be clear the club will be open Friday evening and camping available on Friday as well as Saturday. Safety cover will also be available Friday evening as the juniors will be out training so feel free to take to the water for a bit of practise, and convince all the juniors that 12s are the best boats around!
Cheers
Gareth
I'll be there with 3412 and a small/medium tent.
We're planning to come; probably just the 2 of us requiring medium tent space, food and beverages.
Regards,
Steve & Joanne

We are going to be there. Just wanting to clear something from the NOR up. is it only 3 reces to count for the event as the persuit race doesn't count for the series and 3 races planned for saturday. If this is the case from the way I read it, if all races are sailed it will be 3 races leaving 2 to count. In my experience this leaves a lot of people on equal points sometimes with the same results. Also if the race on sunday is a non-counting one will that just make a lot of people go home after the one day? Sorry if I have read the NOR wrong! just thought I would ask the question.
Really looking forward to the event though and will be there with bells on! not sure about camping yet!

looking like I will be there as well. just banged Gordon in the garage for a repaint to the decks, and a rejig of the contol lines.... so I have some. so 10 days and counting to get him ready. if not, I will bring up token gesture.
a second tent for the girls of OMSC to go with foxi's tent
Hi All,
Good to see the numbers for this event creeping up, the good weather has been ordered!
To clarify the NoR: There are 3 normal races on Saturday and 1 on Sunday (after the pursuit race) this will give a 4 race series with 3 to count.
Food, very important I know... Unfortunately the event clashes with our commodore's wedding so our catering team are having a night off to go join the party. I'm hoping the fleet would be happy with a bit of a DIY BBQ, the club will supply the fuel and a couple of big BBQs and there are fridges for storing food for those of you camping. The bar will of course be open!
See you all in a week or so
Gareth
One day I'll manage to write everything I want to in one message rather than having to add it on later!
The catering team will be around during the day on Saturday and Sunday, so it's just Saturday evening where with beer in hand the BBQs will be lit.
Cheers
Gareth
N3500 arriving Friday evening. 2 people, one tent space please.
sorry for being thick is this just open meeting or will their be a training day on sat
would like to come with my 7 year old boy distance is a bit of a issue we are in colchester still thinking about it
It's an open meeting, no formal training (but lots of friendly advice and support!). I will be sailing with my 7 year old and she'd be delighted if there was another youngster out on the water.
Bernard
I am looking for a crew for the summer event. I have sent Christine an email as she was looking for a boat to sail in but i dont know if it was received. Does anyone know if Christine is already spoken for and if so if anyone else in interested in a crewing job?
Patrick Hamilton

Hi Patrick and any other interested parties,
I have 1 oppy sailor sized crew available this weekend from the club's junior section, certainly light wieght, very good sailor, but will be new to 12s. Drop me a reply here or a mail on gareth[underscore]williams[at]talk21[dot]com.
Cheers
Gareth
due to my helm in the enterpox for the inlands i was ment to this weekend, not being able to make it. Im wondering if anyone could lend me a boat + crew or let me crew for them so i can do the n12 summer event instead.
thanks
sam
would anyone be able to lend me a boat for this weekend?
preferably one from l and l sc but i can get it on my way if anyone would be kind enough to lend me their boat.
i have a crew sorted
cheers
sam
Gavin and Sabrina will dust off F'in boat and be there with a tent (and huge foam beds to make camping more user friendly):)
Sadly it now looks unlikely that we will be there (broken trailer, dodgy ankle, crew wants weekend off etc, and that's before we mention the garden . . .). Hope everyone has a wonderful time!
RM and Co
Lack of a babysitter unfortunately means Jane and I will not be appearing after all. The Thorpe Bay cadets are pleased though, it means they get to sail in the front of a N12 instead!
Kevin N3512
Just a quick note to thank all of you who made the trip to LLSC for the weekend, I hope you enjoyed the weekend.
The results for the event and the pursuit race are up online at: http://results.llsc.co.uk/ (http://results.llsc.co.uk/)
Cheers

Hi Gareth,
Thanks for an excellant weekend. You kept up the high standard of the Summer event as the one not to miss.
We must look at the handicap of those clinker boats though as they are incredibly hard to catch!
Simon
Gareth Thanks again for a great weekend and thanks to your club and all those involved in organising the event. Well Done.
PS I agree we could do with more of start for us clinker chaps after all its the only chance get normally to sail in clear wind.
