I made it !!
I am back...

8 weeks of solid work in front of my computer had left gaping voids in the family wardrobes. I have just fought my way back from the Kilimandjaro of ironing, only to organise a Christmas party for LSC little ones. They had a Santa Hunt (from my private collection - nothing saucy before you start sniggering), face-painting, games, food and presents.

Now that's done, I am facing a whole weekend without anything planned at all for the first time since early March. Can't stand this idleness and uncertainty.... Suggestions, anyone?

That seems a bit extreme Isis.

Welcome back BnS Another suggestion come and do the Grand Prix at Grafham on New Years Day!!! Not sure whos going to make it sober  Taxis all round I think

Have you found your Contender yet ?you could spend hours searching all the mags and sites for one !

Aha! I've found the Contender aaaaaages ago, but she's in a chain. Her current owner, a respectable member of LSC, is trying to find a newer model. Until he's found a replacement, I can only hope...

Still, he said he'll tidy her up for me during the winter, repaint her if he's got the time and he's let me sail her several times... I just need to be patient until the sailing season starts again!

Unfortunately the more sane side of my brain agreed with you and I bottled it when it came to taking the grinder to the snout/foredeck.

I made up for it on the rest of the boat though, kickbars, fitting mounts... all gone 
MUHAHAHAHA!!
