1) sober up.
2 and 3) Lose weight and get fitter.
4) win an open in the single hander
5) sort the spinny system out on the Lark
6) remember that work time pays for time in the real world of family and boats.

Happy new year all.
Like some other things - sailing is more enjoyable when you do it with someone else

1.  Remember that work pays for a lot more than just my sailing - Its going to be a tough year

2.  Smile at all of the little people (little people with little minds making little empires) when they demand that it is done their way and only their way

3.  Loose weight

4.  Cut back on the drinking

5.  Eat breakfast (bacon and egg on toast every morning does not count)

1.  Join a sailing club and actually get sailing every weekend. 

2.  Get some form of fitness and possibly put on some weight.

3. Oh yeah... Get a boat.

5) To stop speeding!

Funny how many of the above want to gain/loose weight...would it be possible for those who need to loose weight to pass it on to those who need to gain?

Personally, I need to keep my weight about the same, but drastically change the fat to muscle ratio, preferebly in the correct direction, unlike the steady change over the last decade in the wrong one!

Oh, and find a childminder on a Sunday so that my wife and I can go sailing together and remember how before the Firefly Nationals in August.
