yeah,it's getting closer,so come on nuke,what's the crack mate?:unsure: ....dave.
alan where were you thinking of meeting for breakfast ?
Considering High water is about 10.45am it would be good to start about 9.30, so I would suggest meeting at the Lorry park cafe on the felixstowe side of the Orwell Bridge at about 8 am, would that be to early for the Kent lads. Felixstoe does fish all the way down to low water so it is not imperitive.

I expect they're struggling with "Essex" mate, Cascars'll be on later he'll see the thread, and relay it to the rest of 'em :lmao:

I have to bring the boat up to Upminster on Tuesday. If the Kent lads want to meet me at the Dartford Tunnel they can follow me through. Once I get the other side they are on their own, lol but at least they will be in Essex. They might get there by Sunday.
Only joking guys, of course all the of kent lads know where Essex is, where else would we go for a dead cert on a Saturday night:roll1:
not that dodgy upminster marine Terry.

I would have thought about an hour, windows Live reckon 1 hr 6min that is from Dartford town to Nacton, an Hour ia a conservative guess.
thats the one Terry a number of years ago my Friend used to be the mechanic there, thinking about it it was a good 20 years back and if they had 4 ski boats in stock it was a miracle then again it may have been 30 years .sod I feel even older now. Can you get a bath chair with an outboard??:wheelchai :wheelchai

What time is the meet starting?
The Cafe Location
Click on link, I have set it up to show 3D, because the actual aerial photography is old and the Lorry park quite new, just change to 2D and zoom out to see exactly where it is.

thanks issy...dave.
This is now getting very silly. I have no idea what time this comp is going to start or when it is going to finish. As I have to dig my bait I would like to know how much bait to dig.

Likewise mate. I will be out on the mud on Saturday. I dont know if I am taking anyone with me or anything. I will probably just end up coming down on my own on Sunday unless someone needs a lift pm me.
We do need clear instructions though, match start and finnish times, meet for breccy times etc.:)
Who are you taking down there on Sunday Jay?

They are carrying out road works on the A12/14 as you get towards Felixtowe
