Quite true Olly- Grumpf's is just feeling a bit sensitive because Y&Y chose the best looking bloke for the accompanying foto on the RS100 Nationals write up this month.
 
Was he out long enough for anyone to get a photo of him?

I think Grumpf is right.  Check out the athlete steering the beast he certainly is fit (in more then one way) Its not hard to see why my wife married me!!

Knocked up at the time was she?

Can't think of any other reason for a poor lass to condemn herself to a life of servitude to some hapless riverboat queen..


PS this month I have returned my copy of Y&Y with a note signed 'disgusted from Kent'

Weymouth Regatta - A favourite because it was a return to home waters after 30 years away.

Brilliant - you're still keeping the kite filling!

My apologies for the stretched images - I thought I had fixed that but it's still being a pain. Most odd...

Grumpf, that can't be the picture of you sailing can it?????????

It's a significant picture, if it hadn't been for that boat on that day I'd never have taken up 'sitting down' (how difficult can it be?) and you lot would have remained a sub 'Golf' species in my mind. 

There are times I wish I'd never done it, but then I wouldn't have made lots of new acquaintances would I?

If thats the case, then its very worthy of being included in this thread.
 
As for Sub-Species, i consider windsurfers only mildly up the evolutionary ladder then Jet-Skiers.
