What do we want on the agenda?

Personally I'm going for

1 round the island
2 Poole meet
3 a weekend based at Mercury

Plus more smaller one day meetings

So come on let's have some ideas

All sound good, thought maybe a BBQ on one of the beaches on round the island, or on a separate day??

Ah but if we go round the back of the Island we can get some off the Needles, and maybe some Bass too 8-)

Nice idea but where. We're so scattered.

I don't mind travelling but don't fancy either not drinking, or driving back.

Anyone got a good nearby that could do a bed for the night?

I wouldn't recommend any of my locals.

If East Grinstead is fairly central we've got two extremely comfortable large spare beds plus another smallish room which could take a double air bed, just a thought., :D
