With one week to go before race 1, tensions are high (but only from spouses staying behind) and final preperations are being made to the boat and crew. Unforntunately we have lost a crew member this week with Mark having to stay home - some excuse about work.
We have been lucky enough to pick up John Ayres from Busselton. I like John a lot - mainly at this stage because he about 7kgs lighter than Mark and I am able to eat things other than apples. Seriously though, he’ll fit in great and sail hard which is all we aim to do.
New shirts have just turned up and am awaiting the wine delievery from Wise - hope you sent it Mr Wise or there is a VB GoldTallie waiting for you.
Start the count down from here on - who needs the Olympics . They’re all whimps.

So its a blog-off is it?
Ok, I’ll step up big fella.
Have to say that you are lagging a bit at moment, and as for photos…we are ahead there also. Meow.
Can I just cut and paste yours once we are actually racing - better still, how about I get awarded early points and then just give you the keys so you can do our blog as well?

No
Blog off. You fellas have too much time on your hands.
Still, at least you can look the part. Latest sails, latest crew members. Latest computer web-site.
But will you win?
OK boys settle down lets sort this bickering out over a couple of rums.
As for photo’s lets see who can post the best off the water photo.
hey Chilli didnt get Guernsey this year I hear they replaced you with a crazy kiwi with a rum and coke fetish
