I'm looking for old copies of the Admiraty Tide Tables volume 1 (UK + Eire) for training purposes. My current copy is circ 1999. Can any of you in webland offer me any copies newer than this?

*** Does it matter if it's 1999 if only used for training ?

If you write a VERY nice e:mail to the HYDROG DEpartment explaining what you want, you may get a nice surprise thought your letter box ***

I wrote to them asking for some bits and bobs for training navigation to some local sea cadets & asked if there was a cost price for examples for helping kids. expecting to pay at least 1/2 price on things than what i could get from my local boatie shop and stuff i already use, THIS IS WHAT I GOT... F.O.C

A box of pens ( what wasn't used , went to local pirmary school)
A box of pencils ( Same as above )
A box of chart writing pencils ( Chinagraphs )
2 full chart foilo's ( 10 charts in each pack , in plactic wallet )

Tide tables
a 5011 ( which was given to top cadet from my course )
stickers.

Hate to think how much this lot would have cost, but going by the postage and speediness i got the parcel , ( each of cadets wrote a very nice letter back, to which they had a visit there as well whilst on camp ) to me it was worth 5 minutes writting an e:mail.

Also try your local coastguard station.It's like christmas, when there stuff lands on ya doorstep.

Give it a go
