Largs of course! Now tell me where else would you be able to host both the sailing and the associated infrastrucure in the UK? Weymouth would struggle and so would the Solent! |

The pond in my garden could host the infrastructure, great sailing venue as well (If you remove the shopping trolley) |

I don't know it well enough!
A few plusses come to mind though: For Less bullsh*t Men in kilts Plenty of space Beautiful backdrop for great piccis - and the light's great when it's not raining! The Scots are great at celebrating and enjoying themselves, even when they lose (whould the AC inspire the Tartan Army though? Now there's a question...) But it's a long way from the South Coast/London... would make sponsorship more difficult... |

Gael i'm suprised the Y&Y swear o'meter didn't get you on this one also! 'bullsh*t' After all kids could be reading this and Tiggers need to think about the broad spectrum of young impressionable minds, that make up your readership, they could be being warped with such language? As for Kilts i'll show you mine if you show me yours? Are you also admitting to the myth that South Coast sailing has a minoroty that ruin it for the majority by talking complete "Gael Explitife" when anywhere near a bar or crowded public place where they know others may be listening?? |
