Erling too much information..........! Phil a cartoon idea!

Just got my mag today by Royal Mail, certainly slower than "pony express" :?
Nice one George, just flicked through the mag and like the new format :D off now to enjoy a read in the lounge with a beer unlike Erling, a steam room /candle & rubber duck :oops:

YaHoo!

Thank you for the magazine. Further to the previous comment about a digital option, I much prefer the paper one but am happy to help save the world and costs if necessary in the future.

Phil has excelled - being 'got' in one of his cartoons is better than any trophy in my book. Without giving the game away, there are one or two prominent sailors who should be roundly embarrassed! :oops:
I was chuffed to get a mention in one of the cartoons for my black flag encounters. The family were most amused too. It was frustrating as hell at the time, but worth it now that the moment has been immortalised :D

I'm not embarrassed about my two black flags- just trying to start right but well, and got it wrong. No so proud of a poor call I made against Gordon in the last race though. Gordon, if you are reading, I owe you a drink or two. I was sure at the time, but drew myself a diagram when I got home and soon convinced myself I was a pillock. No cartoon of that moment, thankfully.

I wonder who wrote under the pseudonym Anony Mouse.

Just imagine how much better Robert would go if he faced the front!!
Couldn't believe that lot were behind me - was actually checking the distance (not apparent in the photo because of the compression due to the long lens used) :lol: :lol: :lol:
Still didn't result in a win, though, due to a bad tactical error - well done Charles! :wink:

That would mean that Kevin's trapezing backwards - but then again he is a talented sailor!
Bog off!

Can't afford to bribe George. Owe him too many drinks from Grafham :oops: .
Prefer hard copy, collecting the editions - they just keep getting better (especially the front covers) :lol:
