Bromsgrove Round Table

We are back on the Boat in 2009 and Chairman Ian is getting frisky around the Tardebigge Locks.

We entered the top lock at 7.25, on leaving we passed the only boat going in the opposite direction with comments of “you have started at the wrong time you will not get down the flight tonight” how wrong they were!!!
We stopped for a rest and fantastic buffet at 8.25 after getting down over a 3rd of the flight and set off again around 8.50 arriving in the navigation for a pint around 10.10.

Thanks to Darren for the use of his boat and the effort we all put in I know I am a bit stiff today.

Tony Ryan and Ian Pinder had a 3 .5 hr drive to Eastbourne on A Friday night, arriving at around 8.45 to find the rest of area 35 well oiled after drowning their sorrows after a loss in the national snooker competition.

We met up in an Indian restaurant, taking the largest table in the restaurant with other Tablers from Ireland, Leyland, stoke on Trent and Brackley, we had a “good crack” as the Irish put it until the manager threatened to chuck us out for being too rowdy !! Then over to the Weatherspoons pub the number of Tablers to locals where about 3 to 1 a really good atmosphere, met up with a good crowd from South Wales that arrived around 11.30 after a 7.5 hr drive.

The AGM debate was lively and well worth attending.
