Old Shirl

   well i went out and sailed out in that wind, great fun, and even went out singlehanded cause crew got too cold! Did you see those windsurfers out there? flying along! got a bit wet myself after capsizing a few times right in between a uni race! Great fun though

	Ahhh, well I did tonnnnnnnes more girl therapy after I left, and that cheered me up no end!! That sounds really cool, but when I asked ed, he said he didn't really learn anything new - did you??! (Oh, hey did you see the Volvo she had - do you think she got that from sponsors cos I swear one person doesn't need a car that big ??!) And the reason I didn't stay was because I knew everyone there (pretty much) and it would've been very embarrassing to see everyone working themselves to death in a Force 6, when I was just sat nice and warm in the club house!!!

	I did once finish one place in front of Shirley. I will admit she was making a guest appearance in a class I had been sailing for several years but hey, it felt good all the same. She was starting to sail Europes when I sailed them but I only ever saw her transom in those!

Was an awesome day especially when we beat her team twice, sadly I can't say i beat an Olympian as she wasnt helming but arghh well ...was still well good. Ellie why didn't you stay down lol i know you waved to 'old shirl', but the training really was very very gd!
