Can anyone lend me a bivvy and bedchair?

Fred / Colin

 

Good to hear you are both coming.

 

To all others out there, whether you are coming or not, can you let as many of your angling chums as possible know about the event, as not everyone has access to this or similar sites.

 

As you know, we have set ourselves a considerable challenge in trying to break the £50,000 barrier this year, and therefore we are going to need all the support we can get. In this respect, if anyone has any business contacts who might like to sponsor the event (I'm sure it's tax deductible), either point them in the direction of http://www.stoneyandfriends.co.uk or me.

 

Thanks

 

Chris

See you on the Match Lake Colin, booked it as soon as the form came out.

 

I'll be there with Rich again and you again it seems. I'll see if we can find a spare bivvy I think Rich has one.

Hi Andy - See you booth there then. That would be handy, please try to confirm if he has soon as possible thanks.

 

Anyone with a decent bedchair I could borrow? (better half maybe going with! )

As a matter of interest, from those of you attending, how are you getting on with fund raising / sponsorship, and what basis are you getting people to you for?

Hi Chris,

Starting to get sponsors from 2morrow.

It looks like I might get a few sponsors. I've asked people in work, at fishing lakes where I fish, Family. So it looks like I'll raise a few bob. [Hopefully]

By the way chris, will there be any bans? Hooks, Baits, etc. And can we fish the venue before the fish-in on day ticket.

 

Mark.

Standard RMC rules apply. These should have been sent out with you ticket etc. If you haven't got them, look on www.rmc.co.uk at the venues and rules pages.

 

The only lake we are using at Yateley which is on a day ticket, is Sandhurst. This can obviously be fished before, subject to availability of tickets. Tickets can either be purchased from RMC via there website, or from Yateley Angling Cente. In both cases, tickets need to be purchased in advance.

 

Which lake are you fishing on the event?

69 tickets have now been sold. Last year we had 104 people there, and would like to try and beat that number this year.

 

So, any help in recruiting a few more people would be well received. Pass the message around and lets see if we can get a few more people.

 

Don't forget, it's not just a specialists weekend, as there's something for everybody at Yateley, plus the social is great, and it's all for a worthwhile cause.
