Match Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 Today's looking a bit funky, gonna get stuff done today and get down tomorrow instead. Have fun boyz, be safe!
gravyboat Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 Today's looking a bit funky missed a top sesh today mate. was howlin but my 9 was on fire! i was ****tin it at first because i was the only land guy. then karl pitched up, the wind dropped and seeing him out gave me the confidence to give it a bash. my first sesh in high winds and my best sesh so far! think i did 4 solid hours on that board. i thought i was hooked, now i'm hooked! @ karl + matt 360 comp tomoz??? lol
SandMonster Posted January 5, 2008 Author Report Posted January 5, 2008 wooohoo...was definitely a 9m phantom day...blew the cobwebs off anyway:D:D:D
Plezzy Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 Not sure anyone'll know for sure, but am I likely to get hold of the rangers tomorrow morning to try and arrange a permit so I can buggy (tomorrow afternoon)? I'm not very organised:o Thanks
gravyboat Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 doubt it, think the woman has to do it and shes in about 3 days a week i think. best to phone before you see her 0151-934-2967 the 1st time i went ainsdale with my board i tried to get a permit off a ranger and he said he could not issue one but he looked at my insurance, took my details and said i was ok that day why he knew i was out but i had to get a permit for next time. jobs a good en. just try and drop on a ranger in a good mood.
Match Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 Gill is usually about on a Sunday morning, give her a call on the number Ant has given. See you girls tomorrow!

Kite Killa Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 Not sure anyone'll know for sure, but am I likely to get hold of the rangers tomorrow morning to try and arrange a permit so I can buggy (tomorrow afternoon)? I'm not very organised:o Thanks My mate went over to the office today to get a duplicate one, but they said Gill is out of the office until the 17th . @ Carl, what did the ranger say about your grind rail?
carltb Posted January 5, 2008 Report Posted January 5, 2008 i couldnt use it on h&s grounds. it wasnt the ranger it was the "all seeing eye in the tower" top session today, bring on that 360 comp tomorrow (or i might upgrade it to a 1080 comp!!!!)
