Winter blues

[poacher]

Just come back from a day's racing with the IOM, 19 races with several stops for mulled wine and mince pies. Kept dry and warm. Very difficult to beat on a cold winter's day!!

I just came back from a days racing in the cold, I am cold, wet and hungry! But I would rather go sailing (I think!)

We've just got back from a day's Race Officering and Safety Boating - no luxury yacht committee boat, just sitting in a slowly leaking and slightly deflating open rib trying to juggle race sheets, watch and flags to keep them dry and trying to keep my hands warm enough to write. Even the ink in the biro wouldn't flow smoothly!
Wind was completely wrong for a race box start or finish.
