What??!! That's "spreadsheet" racing. You'll hate it. What's possessed you...?

Yes, it sounds a thoroughly miserable way to go sailing, no doubt there'll be no wind as well...   but in fairness it is a good opportunity to catch up with some people around this time of year and is slightly less frustrating than being sandwiched between Musto countrywear jackets and Prada handbags on the Docklands Light Railway to the Boat Show.

There's also a Lemons Hill Bridge race at Alton Water on New Year's Day, right up the length of the lake and back.  Hope to get to that one if possible.
the same, but different...

I have been offered to guest helm a Fireball...be afraid...be very afraid!

New year's pursuit race at Bristol Corinthian normally gets a few visitors, although I haven't done it for a few years.

Whitefriars has a Boxing Day Bottle race, usually a Pursuit to save all the calculating hassle at the end. Always good fun, silly hats a must. In fact, my Father in Law has just finished the Whisky I won a few years ago, so maybe I need to try harder this year!
