"The Boeing 737 squealed its nose wheel on the Valencia tarmac as a weak sun began to illuminate the eastern Spanish sky. As the hatch swung back a group of enormous men were silhouetted by the light from within the aircraft cabin.......".

You could see if you could mention Cameron more times than Louis in a Byte report, or more times than P&B in a B14 report, but that would be going some.....  Wink

As I said, it is very difficult to write up for a small fleet when three of the competitors are close friends and one is ones son!

As dawn gathered  and the eerie backdrop of the Spanish sky flooded the airport in luminescence the steps were rolled up to the aircraft door and those figures, until now seen only in silhouette, began to take on human form. These gods, beings from another World emerging from a silver tube and descending into reality. Gladiators ready to rule, ready to fight....ready to....sail! Their feet touched the hard surface of Spain and as the light slanted towards them one figure was lit as if by limelight, his tall, elegant form rippling of muscle, straight back pointing as if to the skies from which he fell.....Cameron Tweddle. "OK" said he "Where's the pie shop".

I of course Booterscooter wish Cameron (and you?) the very best of luck.

I know iiitick - that was said in jest, how dare you mention the winner.... I for one appreciate any reports and do often have a quick flick through the dinghy ones on the homepage, even for classes I'm not involved with, so they do get read!

Steve's are still the best though.....
