Can someone give me a map of Lundy with Zim's sleeping quarters pin-pointed, so I know where (not) to pitch my tent?

there you go Chris:
Lundy Island
(scroll down the page a bit for a map)
We're in the Old Lighthouse, so somewhere up around the North Lighthouse should be ok for you

 Good to have you on board Mr ed, look forward to meeting you
 I posted a few weeks ago that i'd like 75 as Lee wants my other choice of 74. Is that going to be ok with you

  Stuart.

No worries as I'm synthed up. I would like to know what freq to choose as I'm about to buy a teensy weensy Rx and crystal for my Crobe2.

Full moon while we're there chaps. Anyony for night flying? On the Wednesday the moon is up from 8 til 7.
Now who sells lights?

  Time exposure with a light on the planes so you can draw a big circle round the moon.
i am so keen to try this now. I have to find a plane I can fit a bunch of the Canuck's LEDs to. I'm sure i have an excess of 60" mouldies lying around.

Clear weather will make for some amazing nighttime shots in general.

I'm looking forward to my dusk forays with the PIK and plopping her down just outside the front door of the lighthouse!

Tempted to take my Pik 20 as well, then we could make it a syncro pair Zim

 Andy, Forget the easy glider, your A10 with full set of scale night lights is what we want to see

If you can find it in the dust piles at the back of your shed....

Moonlight - just add glider...

Hi folks

Well I have some sad news , I am going to have to remove myself from the "Going to Lundy" list ( well sort of )
If there is anyone out there that would like to go then my ticket is for sale, I have paid Ian £85 deposit so if some one wants it just let me know , All further costs can be found within this thread or you can ask , I am really gutted but the way things are going with the EX part of life and all the tie's I am going to have to withdraw. If no one buys my ticket then I will of course honour my commitment to the  accommodation,

Sorry if this messes anyone around but I am sure some one else will enjoy the trip

Happy flying

Lee

sorry to hear it Lee - hope you get it all sorted 

Phil.

Bad news lee.

    So we will have cold toilet bowls this year then , without you there to hug them and keep them warm for us?

But Lee   ive got a bottle of sambuca  with your name on it ........................

Hang on a second. Nobody said that there was drinking on Lundy. 

On a more sensible note. To avoid everyone turning up with soldering irons but nobody having any flux, should we pool repair stuff? I can brung West resin and carbon and microballoon and fibres.

Don't forget, just as the resin has been applied you have to say "Now if I was doing it, I would have..."

I don't want you carboning my wing seats whilst I'm not looking now...

Lee - mate - aaarrrgh! Hope you get a turn around soon buddy

MrEd- you gotta stop making an ar5e of yourself !

It's not my arse. They are my pants though. Well I paid for them anyway...

Cheap- if you paid by the square yard!

Come off it. Lingerie is like high end DLGs. The lighter and flimsier it is  the pricer it gets.

you didnt think that all we did was fly do you ............you have to be on for the pre race leveller

Can we make it a jog down to the jetty and back? I found gravity is the main leveller in my flying.   

Hey lads

Just had a thought... Is it too early to start discussing what models we're taking? It's fun! Here's what I'm thinking so far:

PIK20 - because it's a massive pain in the a4se on the boat and it gives me a sense of accomplishment just to get it there. Oh and this time I want to do some proper circuits around the church spire. Attempts last time were a bit limp really.

Strega - coz I loikes it for racin'

Vector III - coz I was dead jealous of Adam's last time out.

Thorn - coz I gotta!

D60 - in case we get some bigtime winds for maximum frontside burnage.

JART M70 - coz there's cliffs and I want to try and re-live watching Lift Ticket.

Venom - coz it's hard as nails and chicks dig a ninja combat wing.

Can't wait already!

Zim

Yep - too early

Phil.

Good point phil . For anybody new  a bigggg box to put everything in makes life so much easier ...
