The bus will leave from Rothesay Pier at 7.00 p.m Completed entry forms to be returned to Catherine Toy by the 12th September, to help identify numbers for catering and for the bus. If you require a children’s menu can you specify that on the form and we will organise it with Mount Stuart.

Commodore’s Message

Dear Friends,

After the stunning weather in May and June, which was often accompanied by fair winds, it was all the more disappointing to experience yet another dismal July and August. There seems to be some malign presence which causes the weather on the west of Scotland to break as soon as the schools stop, and often only to pick up again as soon as the autumn term commences.

Whilst we have to live with whatever the local weather throws at us, we can at least try to devise as attractive as possible Musters. You will see in this newsletter, the venue for the Autumn Muster has changed to Rothesay. Whilst keeping a similar sailing format which has worked well in the past, we have organised a rather special dinner at Mount Stuart House restaurant, together with transport from Rothesay. Having seen the menus and the wine list, this should be a memorable evening for the club.

The Cal Mac ferry timetable may prevent those who usually drive to this muster from returning to the mainland after the meal. However, there is a wide range of accommodation on Bute, and particularly if anyone has not already visited Mount Stuart House, I can strongly recommend that they combine a visit with the muster, since both the house and the gardens are quite outstanding.

I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible in Bute in September.

Tom Barrie,
Commodore
