Couldn't get out of bed early enough to sample the wild westerly gusts. Had a look at Liptons, but it was just a tad off shore and very up and down. Didn't fancy getting stranded on the wrong side of the channel, so joined Roger, slugger and Boz at Fangys,

Initially went with the 48, 24 @ 42 and 6.2, was OK in the gusts but a pain in the lulls so changed to the 53 with the 26 @ 45. This was more fun, tried a few alphas, but the lulls were a bit frustrating, seemed to happen each time I gybed! So decided nothing was going to be achieved and called it quits.

My gybes weren't as bad as I thought, just found a 20.5 alpha at 51m

Not the day I thought I might have but after a good day Sunday I've had my fix. Maybe should have gone in the chook pond but heard that's a bit controversial so stayed out. Thanks mike for putting the new firmware on my gps.

Better than my day too. I got to work at 8.30 and eleven hours later I still have about an hour to go. Just taking a quick break to get some calories in to get some energy up for the next stint.

Good to see that The Mob flourishes and that you are all airing some canvas. Very jealous. Was 'ken wearing neoprene?

Firie and Fangy....way better than my day too. Here on the windless Goldie I heard the sound of snapping latex all day. Dental appointment as well as other personal inspections. Sad face.

After leaving my second lecture I had a jumper. Soon after, I didn't and spent the rest of the day freezing my delicate manboobs. I have no idea where, when or how I lost it. I then sat through the rest of the lectures and then endured the subarctic air cond in the my computer lab, and emerged cryogenically preserved and shivered my way down to the train, arriving in Mandurah at 8:00pm. I ran through the light rain to my car, parked of course, about as far away as you can be. At this point, after emptying the contents of my bag onto car bonnet, twice, I realised I had lost the spare key to the car. Yes, the spare key, because I had already lost the first key a few years ago. Time to ring wife and give her the good news. New key for the Merc from the last millennium, cheap as chips darling...not. Could it get any better. Yes. It's my wife's birthday as you read this. Guess where I left her present? Check the obituaries to see how it turns out...

Sue- kids ran interference for me, still kicking, even if only temporarily :-) Firie - all good there mate, it's not been a problem since you told me what that dial with the petrol pump and big red light was for.

Cant be your sail, no duct tape on it. You need to put an arrow on the board so I can tell which way round it goes, there isn't much difference between the back and front.

Was going to say "I haven't had any complaints"...

Probably more accurate to say I haven't had anything except complaints.
