To help us would people who intend to come drop me a line so we can work out the logistics. So far we have a huge amount of Phantoms and are going to be outnumbered in the Bar!

Fantastic Day at Up River today. A mist on the water at first, which the sun burnt off and the wind arrived just in time.
And the forcast for Sunday...more sun and more wind, perfect.
Hope you are coming, if not your loss.

Two fantastic days at Up River; more challenging today than yesterday. Well done to Simon and the team for organising a great event, just a shame the turnout was poor!
