Fairly new this internet lark, and surfing a lot to find websites of interest... Two new ones came to light.....this one, and a new one i found, that has just started, but does look good. http://www.boat-talk.com./ - www.boat-talk.com. I have started to use both. Most I have looked at appear to have some affiliation to a company that ultimatley i feel will try to sell me something ! Regards to all Saradex |

2 + 2 = ? despite what you may think, it's not my site. If it was i would be proud to tell you as I wish i had the abillity / knowledge to create something like this, but at my advanced years just using the internet is a big enough challange. as with everthing in life you have the choice to totaly ignore the suggestion and never visit the site. regards saradex

Well thank you for the welcome, black no sugar. two identical posts, yup, a might strange I agree, but unfortunaly being a bit short on digits, cut and paste is very handy, unlike me. Saradex |

Lol soz Dinghy Sailing Magazine. If you have a look through the banter section there are some threads hinting about the 'hidden' rivalry. ------------- http://theramblingsofmyinnergeek.blogspot.com/ |

Well, at least Y&Y don't appear to rehash the same old articles unlike DSM.  In their current issue they are discussing rescues involving safety boats. Unbeknown to the author and/or editor,  the racing rules have changed, as they do every 4 years, so their mistake is quite glaring

Looks like you got a friendly welcome on that YBW forum lol But we're a much nicer bunch here - and you don't have to join another forum, you'll start getting confused and then putting strange posts up when you're operating 2 forums at once... an example following --------

i think the whole competing thing between the two forum is stupid, i mean they're about pretty different things within a big heading, and for different audiences. what's the point in having a rivalry like that. this forum seems a lot more fun orrientated wheras that one's more sensible. oh and by the way, i appologise for any comments that i may have made on the DSM forum to members of this forum that caused offense. sorry guys ------------- |

Yep, it's just a bit of fun and here, you get to watch the bouncing boobs in all their glory. Even if you give sensible answers to sensible topics, you can't really give it too much importance. Well, apart from Carshalton and me, who spent about an hour discussing the forum last time we met As for other fora, there must be lots more out there. To be honest, I didn't even know DSM forum existed! ------------- http://www.lancingsc.org.uk/index.html - Lancing SC

  I had a look at it last week with Carshalton, and one of the pages had to be skimmed on very fast, since my 9-year-old was trying to read over the shoulders  Young innocent boys like you...... you should be ashamed  ------------- http://www.lancingsc.org.uk/index.html - Lancing SC
