Hi Fellow V-Flyers,
With the 2007 event proclaimed a roaring success by all shipmates we must now turn our sails in the direction of next years voyage.
Due to the need to plan vacation time far ahead (in order to be sure of attending [8D]) we have fixed the date as Saturday 12 July 2008. Please put this date in your diaries/calendars now!
We will change the format for 2008 and take an afternoon cruise upstream towards Cookham and Marlow taking in what is probably the most picturesque stretch of the Thames, The Clivedon Reach.
We will be sailing on the MV Pink Champagne which comes with that 'must have' v-flyer essential, an on board bar! [;)]

The meeting and evening venue will be the Thames Hotel in Maidenhead as usual. Rooms will be available at discounted rates and in the evening we will have a social gathering where members can eat and drink an enjoy the company of their fellow v-flyers.
The rates negotiated for this year are as follows:
Saturday 12 July 2008.
Single Room 45.00
Double Room 55.00
Executive Room 65.00
Family Room 70.00
These rates are VAT inclusive and include full English Brekkie.
For anyone wishing to stay for the Friday night also I understand there may be a small reduction per night on the above rates.
