If you already have some sailing experience or would like to get involved read on....


I am a member of Hoo Ness Yacht Club, based on the Medway and one of the closest yacht clubs to East Dulwich.

The club is very friendly and has a "self help" policy which keeps fees low and gives a real community spirit.


Contrary to popular belief, sailing does not have to very expensive and the Club is seeking new members, without boats, who might wish to sail with established crews.


If you are interested, please see the club website - http://www.hooness.org.uk and find the "Join Us!" section



Thanks for reading and if you have any queries, please ask here or contact the club.


Thank you


Graham

From the Club Web site....


"Have you ever wanted to learn how to sail a yacht? Do you have dreams of sailing into the sunset (clich?, but it happens!) Don't have a boat yourself? Or just want to crew?


We have a small team of members who have very kindly offered to share their boats and time with other members who want to do just this!



So you don't need to have your own boat to join Hoo Ness Yacht Club! There are always opportunities to get out on the water, from just outside the club to the Mediterranean.


So ring the Membership Secretary now (or email him) and come and visit us this weekend."

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
