Hey! where did all these people come from?I'm just chillin' (end of shift!) and suddenly there's all these wasters on line, talking bollix about clouds and pubs....thought I was back at work for a moment. Whats the forcast for the w/end? First week of the season was cancelled due to cold/wind, so last w/end was the first sail, and now my sailing addiction is back with a vengeance,& I need a fix badly!!! ------------- |
