Final thoughts before the trip
Just some random thoughts before I leave.
What do you guys want to do at night? I'm bringing my laptop, so... I can bring a bunch of naval movies... MST3K roast of U-571? Some sort of SH3 or 4 contest? I'll be donating a PT-boat prize. Maybe a webcam? (last ditch attempt to get Jim or Tarjak) Subsim drinking olympics! Who can drink more: a Brit, an Aussie, or a Finn? (and still function the next morning) Free booze for ferrets. (last ditch to get Neal to call in sick) Free suzuki to anyone with a (valid) Pearland driver's licence. So we are all meeting on thursday, at the cabins? We need to bring a sleepingbad/pillow for this, right? Anything else?

I'm bringing my laptop as well, I'll bring my handy-dandy tempur pedic pillow because of my bad neck, but hopefully I won't have to pack a blanket or anything else.
my pc won't handle Sh3 or 4, so if we are gonna play SH, Ivan and I will have to switch off or something of the sort. other than that, we can all play Worms Armageddon

TBH Jason I'm feeling pretty bad about the whole thing....less than a fortnight ago I was informed of a new position I'm being slotted into at work tomorrow (20th) so the fact is I may well have been a last minute drop out anyway But health and all the rest permitting, we shall meet again my friend, you have my word on that....besides, how else will you get a Newcastle United shirt? Take loads of pictures for us because it looks like you've a fleet or two of ships/subs to choose from

What's the actual weather forecast like? Shorts or jeans? Raincoat? I'm trying to travel as light as possible.

It's sunny here today, a light breeze but it's a little bit on the cool side.
Here's a link showing the next few days weather for Waterford http://www.wunderground.com/US/CT/Waterford.html Looks like the temps will range from the high 60's to the mid 70's mostly.

It doesn't feel like it, honestly. It's a little cold to be in shorts, but a little warm to be in jeans today, I guess it's just what you prefer
EDIT: Current Humidity is 29%
