[Les Goodall]

Yes please for me 🙃

Can you add me in.  I haven't rowed for months so please be kind.

[Matt O’Neill]

Hi Barry,
Yes please for me.
I’ll be bringing a friend as a guest too please - Simon Quinn.
He has a waver form and will bring it with him.
It’s his first time rowing in a long while, but should be ok as he used to race Dragon Boats.
He’ll be looking to join the club as well.
(He is 6ft 5”, so will need a little space!!)

Hope that’s all ok,
See you tomorrow.
Thanks, Matt

[Dave & Josie]

Yes please for both Dave and myself.

[Alison b]

Hi Barry
Apologies my guest rower can no longer make it.
Many thanks to Frances for offering to bring the waiver form.

[Greg]

Yes please Barry

May I sign up as a twelfth rower to make 2 full complement boats - though I think the likelyhood of us getting out, with the present wind strength forecast for tomorrow, is low.


Lowest I can find is 17 mph on “windy”, with the trusty “ xcweather” giving a F5 minimum, gusting F7.

[Matt O’Neill]

Hi Barry,
I’m preempting this is going to be cancelled today, due to the high winds, and if I’m honest I don’t think it’s great weather for a newbie….i don’t want to put my mate off of rowing just yet!!
So we’re going to cancel out early, and make other arrangements.
Good luck if you do all go out, and be careful!!
Let’s hope to get better rowing weather soon!
Matt

The weather station Emsmet is currently showing 23 knots of wind gusting 28 and all the forecasts I have looked at about the same  sorry but that's too much for me so I'm not coming  what a pity
