9" of snow up to lunchtime today, up north. Looks OK til mid afternoon Sat then a few hrs of snow then warmer again. I'm 60:40 atm for not fighting my way down a slippy M-way. Will decide tomorrow evening.

Well done to Mark for being the 4th different winner of the series. I am guessing there was a bit of breeze.

And congratulations to Jenny for taking the winter series following on from the summer series.

I have put the scores up.

Excellent event, even if some half boats did get in the way from time to time lol.

Well done Mark for today & Jenny for the series.

I was going to have a beer when I got home but thought I'd use my prize to demolish a bottle of Pinot instead! After that & an hour in the bath I have no aches or pains at all! :lol:

Thank you Liam & yes. I was the first to reach the committee boat pre-race and Nigel shouted it was a steady 22 knots! Fantastic sailing conditions although it softened off a bit gradually.
