Courses to book online
Ok, I may have jinxed the weather, please accept my apologies! I was hinting last week that, although we have not had as much rain as other parts of the country, it's been wet and grey here for weeks now. Yesterday's downpour of sleet and snow, was not exactly the change I was hoping for! The first draft of new dinghy parking allocations has been completed and anyone who

Weekly news
You'd be forgiven for thinking that the last three newsletter photos were actually one and the same. They do all look rather empty and grey, but consider how much rain has fallen on the rest of the UK! I feel that we have been let off the worst weather and fingers (and toes) are crossed firmly for this to continue. Power boat information and prices are now up to date

More successful fundraising events
You'd be forgiven for thinking that I have used the same photo as last week... Whilst we don't have much in the way of sunshine here at the moment, the weather continues to be mostly mild and mostly dry. 10 years ago 10 years ago, our clubhouse looked quite different. You can see from

Sunday lunches continue
We hope you all stayed safe and managed to avoid the worst of storm Goretti last week. We had temeratures around 10-11 degrees C this afternoon! The weather for the rest of this week looks to be a good deal more settled here in Norfolk, great if you're planning to get some boat repairs done. The clubhouse will be open next Saturday morning for yoga with Rachel at 09:00 and hot drinks will be

We hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and now looking forward to welcoming the New Year.

We wish you all a very merry Christmas
This week's photo might look a little "bleak midwinter" but the good news is that the days are now getting longer and BSSC will be open over Christmas and New Year! It's become something of a tradition to come to the sailing club for drinks on Christmas day and we hope to see plenty of you there. We will also be open for WoW drinks on 30th December
