Sunday up here in the North was sunny and virtualy wind free even on the moors at the sailing club, the only reason I went up was to do my OOD duty
I tried to abandon the racing through lack of a wind in any direction and refused to set a course but 13 monohull sailors wouldnt let me leave , so I made them drift around for about and hour each for the first 2 races
but only wore them down to 5 for the last race, but there are worse places to spend a sunday afternoon
As for me back in to racing mode, its coming along well I can sail in any wind I used to sail in and be competetive, we had a Trophy day two weeks ago and I beat ben in one of the races the race officials tried to give me trophy for said beating of Ben but they didnt have one spare
I have now got to build myself up to doing two days of racing and then I should be back on the circuit I hope
Other obsticle in the way of being back to full form is that I havnt capsized yet and dont know if I can right the boat
I have said I will do it on purpose before the end of the season as its a hurdle I must overcome
As for Wednesday Night Ben was late home from work and we need an hour to get to the club and set up the boats so we missed the last midweek sail but went up to the local Pub (local to the sailing club) and had a pint with our friends
