I agree.... but also....

I wish they'd stop using "Champagne Sailing" - it means so many different things to so many people and it's repeated use in report after report just shows a lack of imagination......

I think Rolf and Gary did a little more than "like" a few instagram photos!

I am new to this instagram thing, an instagram virgin you may say. Quite a few teenage girl sailors seem to 'like' our pictures and some of their photographs seem to be of them doing beachy things with their friends. I have been told that I should 'like' or even 'follow' them back, but I have no wish to share a cell with Mr. Glitter or Rolf, so I do not.

Sinbad (internet windsurfing troll)is sadly gone, died a few years back, was good value whilst he lasted, and that nutter Oneup or Pueno who was probably him as well.

Sounds like the voice of (bitter) experience....
