Bradley's Last Cruise

[Dr Bradley]

(Possibly)

 

Having spent the summer largely in my home area doing some (re)fitting, I have at last set off elsewhere. It will be slow going as there are plenty of river sections between here and York, then up the Trent. Come spring the boat will be for sale, hence the last cruise.

[Mrs Trackman]

Always a sad thought. I wish you well for whatever you plan to do instead and trust you can see this move as a new chance.

[Odana]

I hope you will still come to banters, even if you are not boating ...

[Dr Bradley]

I'll still be on a boat, but I'm going to the rough stuff. I may make banters this year then I'll be too far away.. Sunny climes beckon.

[Mrs Trackman]

Now that does sound positive. Sunny places. Part of me enjoys the winter on board, and part gets fed up with having so many layers on.

Good luck and hope to see you on your final flat water cruise Colin. I am not sure the weather is going to play ball though.

[tillergirl]

Sooo pleased your lumpy water boat dream is coming to fruition.............you will be missed at banters Colin

[rgreg]

Tell us about your lumpy water plans. What boat do you have/ plan to get and where are you going with it? I'm interested as it's something we consider doing at some point. Cheers.

[Dr Bradley]

A cruise round Britain in year one, possibly including Scandanavia and the Baltic. Year two in the Medditeranian then as autumn draws on sail south till the butter melts and turn left.

Sounds excellent. And your boat for this?

[Dr Bradley]

That depends on what I buy but Moody 33/34 tops the long list.

[rgreg]

Good luck: look forward to some interesting cruise reports

[Ange]

Ah so this stage of your adventure is drawings to a close as planned. I'm sure we'll meet up some time this year before you set off - we never seem to go too long before our paths cross over a few beers

 

ETA you might even get a chance to thrash us at Risk - again

wow....the eternal adventurer. To me you are an inspiration... ;-) Please keep popping in and letting us know where/how you are...I watch for your rare posts with beady eyes.

[Mac of Cygnet]

You were still living in the campervan on Monday! Is this all because you lost at chess?
