Quote from: mk4buggy on July 10, 2025, 05:41:29 PMJust your hard earned cash  , £7.50 each/night, cheers

Noted... that sounds like £30 well spent. On the day or in advance?Either works for us. We'll be there Friday and Saturday night, look forward to it (now that the forecast is kind)

Quote from: Hunter on July 16, 2025, 04:26:05 PMSwanage Carnival Boat Cruise

Hiya everyone,

Popped over to Swanage and got the option from "Coastal Cruises".
We could join the cruise at Swanage about 11.30 go to Poole then return to Swanage leaving Poole at 3.30. The trips last an hour each way. There will be live commentary giving information during the cruises, there is a fully licensed bar on board and for an extra £2 you are able to take your doggy with you.
The cost for the cruise is only £20.

If you're interested to join in please let us know so that we are able to book this and let them know by Wed 22nd July

Cheers Hunter and Carole

If there was an option to do this a bit later, say, 2:30, we would be in. We're coming down on Friday morning but won't get there in time to get a boat at 11:30... I know lots of people have already said yes to 11:30, but could it also work later for anyone/everyone? That way, maybe more of us could join... just sayin'

Maybe the word "Cruise" is a bit misleading, its more like a Poole Ferry - If its the one I think it is, then it takes you to Poole in the morning, drops you in town for a couple of hours and then picks you up in the afternoon and returns you back home to Swanage.

I think ?

Has the dress up theme been agreed yet? If so what is it because some of us aren't organised yet

OK. Change of plan for me.

The Blue dog is injured and therefore is housebound for the next 2 weeks so I'll be coming solo after all and will have to slum it in our tiny tent rather than the relative luxury of a camper. I will set off early on Friday morning, aiming to be at Swanage FC by 10:00 so I can join you guys for the 11:30 boat trip after all... please count me in!

For the Quiz on Friday night, we have a buzzer round. I have 8 buzzers but depending on numbers, that might not be enough.
Could I ask, if you are wanting to join in the quiz and you have a buzzer, or a musical instrument! Please can you bring it so you can make yourself heard. Many thanks.
