I was in a Finn, (a boat I'd never sailed before) and you were in Peaky's Blaze (a boat you claim to know better about than Mike), anyway I beat you fair and square (and on that silly handicap sheet).  As for dwarf tossing, count yourself lucky you weren't arrested   LOL

Anyway shifty and manageable.... you'll have to enlighten me, that sounds like lottery wind- everyone is capable of sailing around the course, but some nasty shifts will f**k the results up.  Not that I mind taking the challenge.... any wind, any where, any boat... and now a board at Hayling.  Or are you still trying to dodge the challenge ;-)

Peaky's Blaze? You mean that thing with nowhere to sit? I remember now, I was focussed on Peaky who was busy chucking himself out of mine, the only time I beat him was when we swapped Boats, and those FInns? They're faster than a fat boy on fire on the way to a water butt...

I have yet to accept any challenge surrounding NWF, I don't often get to that, it always clashes with Eurobike or some other diversion, and it is a muppet fest, they let all manner of no rule idea muppets into this out and back dash which has all the skill requirement of that nail bashing with the wrong end of the hammer Northern Mastermind game...

Most of the Black Country used to be in Staffordshire until all the boundaries were messed with in the early 1970s. Black Pudding has nothing in particular to do with Lancashire. In various guises it's eaten all over Europe and probably beyond.

How about a pre-FOM bash this weekend at Thornbury SC.

Thanks to Y&Ys #GetOutAndSail campaign, we've got loads of great prizes, free camping or space for your van, plenty of beer and a great band.
