not sailing related OR over the weekend...

went to a farm today with some young kids, well they says it a farm but was more like a zoo.

during a 'hands on' session i got the chance to hold a monkey, all was great for a few minutes with it climbing all over me then,


it goes and SLAPS me in the face

i got beaten by a monkey

Bummer Dave.  Very disappointing

We just went drifting around the Solent from Chichester (no chance of gettting to Brighton). Thank god the yot has a motor.   Ended up in Port Solent for saturday night. Moored virtually outside  Lloyds/'spoons, a few stiffeners, then curry 3 doors down, then back to 'spoons.  There must be f'all to do around that area on a saturday night, because the place was jumping. It was highly enertertaining !!!

Hangover prevention = half pint of cranberry juice with a couple of vodkas at the end of the night.  Worked a treat although I did appear to have some balance issues.  The cranberries probably weren't fresh enough......

First time a race has been abandoned after starting in living memory. Shame as we had 70 boats on the water, including 50 Lasers.

Drifted out to the start line, decided to drift back in again, thought the wind was filling in so drifted back towards the start line, the wind wasn't filling in, so drifted back in and went home.... Oh, and forgot to put me bung in (oops)

Ovi inlands, good event loads of boats, rubbish weather racing cancelled sunday, really really dissapointed that the club didnt put any entertainement on and closed the bar at 9!!!!  Not good after a £23 entry fee! still the pub down the road was good!
