====== Sticky Weekend ====== The sticky weekend was a hotbed of boat building, modification and repair, together with a good bit of instruction in the fine art of messing about with glue. Many thanks to [[people:Paul Croote]] for lending the class his work shop for the weekend. For a rookies tale of the weekend see [[news:2007:sticky_weekend_-_a_beginners_guide]].
