Don't you just hate it when...

You head to the sailing club, in the hope that up in the hills the fog, drizzle and lack of wind may not be an issue. You're wrong, and its the same up there with no signs of clearing. You think "sod it" and at 3 in the afternoon, when you're hanging wallpaper, you look out the window.

Bright sunshine and a F2-3.

 Crap.

I assume you are talking about langstone Tim, bit annoying wan't it

Glad to see that it wasn't just be getting frustrated today. I haven't sailed for 3 weeks now and it's doing my head in. I never realised how theraputic it is.

Don't you just hate it when you think "I'll have to go the other way to get past that (faster) boat.  You do so and get dumped out the back.  Must have lost 300 yds in one beat to a Tornado doing that today.  Before this point, we were having a good race.

When even sailing like an absolute tool and not being able to think due to having the sorest tonsils ever. Be lying 3rd going into the last race of a travellers even knowing all u had to do was beat the 2 boats that were on the same points as you. You get a good start know you werent over the line because you only just missed the pin then they have a general recal. Now at this point you get wished good luck by the one hottie in the fleet.(All going to plan at this point). Get another ok start. One of only about 5 boats who make it thru the line on stb and get to go left up the beat (had paid all weekend due to there being no wind up the loch side on the right) the 2 boats you have to beat are a good 20 seconds later on crossing the line and one goes left and one goes right naturaly since right hasnt once paid i loosly cover left. Boat that goes right comes out 3rd at the windward mark having made up summin like 100 yds of lossed ground. Due to it then beiogn the same old prossession arround the course due to a lazy race team staying ashhore not going out in a comittie boat then we had no hope of getting bk and end up 4th overall in the event.

F***king Ponds!
