Submarine conning tower hatch

You could all detour to Cambridge, submarine and all. @KimB could use the low-loader to take the sub along

I think you’d need a little more than a low loader

Of course, a crew bus for the team painted in Mig Welding Forum colours

Not good news I’m afraid Guys. Looks like we’ll have to postpone this weekend’s trip:

Hello Andy, unfortunately due to family issue this weekend is now not possible for me as I have to go to Cambridge for 1pm Sunday

If you guys are available for a rearranged date I can do Sunday 10th,17th, or 24th Feb or pretty much any Sunday in March.

Apologies for the late notice I had hoped to find a way around the issue but it's not been possible

Regards John

What a pity. Was looking forward to that.

Sorry Guys I was going to call John tonight and update the thread but you all beat me to it (didn't want to harass him too much!)
For anyone who has booked a hotel or is planning on coming down anyway, I'm happy to meet up for a chat & beer on Saturday evening or Sunday lunch - plenty of pubs & restaurants in Rochester - would be good to have a forum meet up anyway

I suspect she's got her hands full with her new house for the time being.

What a shame. Depending on numbers I would like to come along in Feb, I had been keeping quite as it looked like a full house already, we shall see what happens next month.

 

[angellonewolf]

have not seen @KimB for quite a while on here

I thought I saw her in South London early last week navigating a tricky right turn with a piling rig on a swan neck. Tried to cop a look though the cab window but all I could see was a not very manly right arm.

 

[HopefullySoon]

I see her often on the motorway network when she’s ooop Norf

That kind of rig draws attention , esp
Mine just to see who’s driving

 

[andymfell]

to whet the appetites of those going on the trip or others interested there is a feature on the Sub B49 just been on the telly

Abandoned Engineering S1 E4 ghost Ships on Yesterday TV channel available on UKTVPLAY

It was on but then cancelled just before, will still be watching for updated info, I won't be able to visit now,am currently back in hospital and struggling to walk at the moment, so climbing sub's is going to be out for a very long time.

Very sorry to read that - I put a 'like' but we really need a smiley which indicates the exact opposite.

Have these meantime

Unfortunately it did all get cancelled at the last minute. Maybe @sovietsub would be up for arranging something in April or May
