Wimp might be better.

Are there only enough names down to fill one raft then? I was going to see if YC fancied it

Well, if can find another 3 peeps on the org, then would have 2 boats of 6. At the new price, I imagine it won't be too hard to find.

Yep, and that one looks full now. Two more would make two rafts of 4 and 5 and the cost would go up accordingly. (If we can get another raft at that price).

Not sure that I can get another raft at that price. Bledd did us a favour because my daughter is one of his raft guides and will be guiding us.

Lily, just so as you know, I'm not doing the rafting bit. Just going for the ride so if you don't fancy the water bit then you can keep me and Plowsie company and go and get us drinks.

Mike.....quick question.....do you think they would allow us to have more people there but some only do 2 runs? I am just thinking, that if YC and Mrs YC want to go, then we could always do 2 runs each and share the cost.....just an idea......if they were up for it.
