According to long range forecast the beginning of August looks most settled, so I suggest Saturday 4th for the solar day at Newgale.
Comments please.

No problem with the date but we should check if the life saving club's facilities will be available before publicising it.

Roy has gained approval for us in the past - Jim manages contact sometimes. He has ignored e-mails I have sent him. (Could it be me?)
The weather on the day is always hit and miss. All we can do is name the day and hope for the best. Worked well for St Brides.

I'll give him a call and see what he says. Usually it is fine but he does have to get the nod from his committee as a formality.

Well I called his home number and got message saying number not recognised so other than calling round to his house I'm not sure how else to contact him as he hasn't joined this forum.
just a thought I will google Newgale life saving club and see if they have a website.
ps turns out he has a fakebook presence so have sent a 'Friend' request.
Will keep you updated.
Jim,

Quick update re Roy. Apparently he has sent me a reply via Messenger but as i am not using messenger i can't see it so. i better think it out again  ps latest from Roy as follows; Hi Jim, nice to hear from you. I am well thanks and hope that you are too. I will speak to the committee about a solar day but don't think that there will be any problems. I am still doing a bit of astronomy when the clouds clear and am hoping to start attending some talks again now that I am not so involved with the life saving club training ( too old now ! ) I will let you know about the solar day asap. Best wishes. Roy |

Had a message from Roy to say that our date for the solar day is fine. So now it all depends on the weather on the day.
at least we can put it on calendar of events.
