And here was silly old me thinking that it was Mothering Sunday this weekend (the middle Sunday in lent) Mothers day is an American affectation designed by a copywriter so the flower and card industry can fleece us all once more on the Second Sunday in May ------------- When you find a big kettle of crazy it's probably best not to stir it - Pointy Haired Boss Crew on 505 8780 |

Wrong unlike all the other days Mothering sunday is a Victorian tradititon and is more to do with the mother church. So I hope you were all in church this morning |

Still managed to get out and replace the control lines on my boat. Didn't make it onto the water though. ------------- Solo 2257 - The Joker |

My wife's request for Mothering Sunday was to get the Firefly back out on the water after her refit - we even had the new sails up! And I took the children for a sail, though it was pretty breezy for the younger one. ------------- Firefly 2324, Puffin 229, Minisail 3446 Mirror 70686 |
