Top dog

Originally posted by seamonkey Originally posted by tickel Iso is a fading class, superseded by later, more modern designs. That does not give you the right to treat the class or the people who sail in it with derision. Tell us what you sail and I will find a suitably insulting epithet to describe it. Ooohhhh .... first it's Jim being rude to you now me ... time to grow some thicker skin ...Everyone know some classes are harder to win than others and at the bottom of the pile are the noddy ones... if your mate wants his entry into the big event and if he's the next Anslie then he just has to show his metal in a class with greater levels of competition.Out of the 142 nationals run would his class be rated by the people on here as one of the 25 toughest to win? yes or no ..?As for me I am busy with more modern pursuits with kites

I see no reason why anyone should be rude to anyone, we are talking about a hobby here, not life and death. Just show respect for other people.

Kites eh, I presume that implies Kite Surf. I saw one of our former club members recently and when I asked him what he was up to post dinghy sailing he said, "kite surfing, mountain bike racing.......anything dangerous..............". Mmmmmm, genitally incomplete then. On the other hand one of our elderly GP sailors has a grand daughter who is World Kite Surf Champion, more than once I think. She comes down and crews for her grandparent in an old Mk 1 GP when she has spare time in the UK and what a charming, modest and attractive girl. I will see if she knows you..........

I did like those 2 comments in the same posting, Tickel!

After 18 pages of this thread, (which I'm really not going to look back over) has anyone suggested that Scooby Doo is top dog, far better than Lassie? Or maybe Terry Pratchett's Gaspode the Wonderdog?

Gaspode is the top dog...if you disagree Foul Ole Ron will send his smell round to persuade you otherwise.....

It was a clumsy attempt at irony Rupert but I took care not to abuse the evidently noble Seabadger but a third person who you will probably never meet.
