Yes, I agree the show was great and such a friendly bunch of people, that made it even better 

It was lovely to be able to chat to the Y+Y team, glad the cookies were ok and I hope you have all been given a few days off to recover!!   

Hope all who went got home safely.

The sad thing is though ........ It's a whole year to the next one   It would be nice if we could find a way to meet others from the forum at the show, posting is great when you can put a face to a name. We have a year to work a plan!

The show was pretty good.  Just got back to newcastle this morning from it.  Redback, glad you enjoyed the B14, (did we talk, was not sure who to look out for?).  The 29ers were not set up for people to trapeeze off, unfortyunately somone stole/trashed the hull used for that last year so it won't be running for a while. 

Just one point of note, respect is due to the Y&Y team, taking advantage of the free bar on saturday night but still looing bright and breezey the following morning, good show!

I've just seen, I'm in one of the dinghy show pictures on the site.  Standing behind the leech of Ainsley's finn with white t-shirt and cream combats, i'm all famous and everything, wow!!
