sbd Posted May 28, 2008 Report Posted May 28, 2008 cool vid steve, good to see you and steve at the weekend. Thanks for the video comment Hank. Was great meeting up with you all down at Greatstone. Had a great rip saturday (eventually), how was the rest of the weekend. P.s Think thats Rob fighting to hold the kite at the start of the vid Quote
hank Posted May 28, 2008 Report Posted May 28, 2008 yes sunday was cool at camber had about 10mph onshore wind which was cool and then went for a swim later on the weather was so nice! Quote
sonicseal Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Posted May 30, 2008 Yo dudes and dudettes, hope you are all fine and dandy. Lukas is fixing fast and has more energy over the last few days. Nice one to Bernie and Eddie for looking after him in the hospital. We got a huge problem for the 2009 trips. The ferry company have been in touch and are closing (end of Aug '08) with no light on the horizon for a new buyer or any replacement/alternative. We have looked at other ports (Goteborg in Sweden with a 7hr drive to Haugastol) and are continuing to find a good solution. Maybe, and hopefully the ferry route will be sorted out. Will keep eyes peeled and fingers crossed. Quote

Will keep eyes peeled and fingers crossed. "The company claims it has tried to win more passengers by putting a new vessel on the route, and by changing the service concepts on board. It hasn’t helped boost profitability. In fact we were running at a loss having to continually replenish the boxes of teabags in the Commador Lounge .... we suspect someone had a magic key ":) "The shutdown also affects around 270 workers on board the vessel, most of whom are based in Denmark and England. Around 70 shoreside jobs in Denmark, England and Norway will also likely be lost.There will also be a lovely little dog and his handler looking for a new home in Bergen" Good luck with the alternative Tall One.

crut Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Emma and I are still really keen. If not we shall be off to Vietnam for a kiteboarding trip. Quote
