Club night 11th May 2011

Last night at the club, in case you couldn't make it!

 After the usual announcements, in which I passed the idea of Phil Hesketh of Hyde Sports and Models coming to the club meetings on the second of the monthly meetings bringing with him some of his boating wares to sell, it was agreed that he should be able to come and see how it went.

Mike the social Rep confirmed the times of pick up at Stockport and Denton for the coach on Saturday for the trip to Harrogate. Also said that the prices were now set for the trip to Woodvale (Southport show) at £12.50 for members and £15 for guests.

Chris the Exhibition Rep Confirmed that the Haydock Show was all set and asked for any other members wanting to go and exhibit to contact him for application forms.

Regatta/ lifeboat weekend arrangements were going smoothly.

Then it was on to the main part of the meeting ,ie a talk from Mike on Air boats, he had brought a couple of boats and the talk went well with plenty of interaction with the members !

Two of the boats 

NO NO that white fan is not on the boats 

The white fan is not part of the boats, I know how some of you will be thinking !!

There you are I've cloned it out.

There were three new guys there, one signed up and the other two said they were going to down load application forms and send them in, both these guys had brought boats they had bought "Pre-owned " as its called these days ,( but for us oldies "second-hand" ) and didn't even know what they were,

 so The Higham Bros went to investigate and advise them.

So it all seemed to go well and everyone seemed pleased on the night , But there again I know you can't please everyone !

The vicar asked the pert young widow to give a little talk to the Temperance Society because he said the men liked her short addresses.
