Im too conservative!!!

Well there is quite a lot to report today including reports from yesterday.

 

I will start with yesterday… we had a postponement flag up all day so we were just chilling at the yacht club and when we thought they would realise what the heck they were doing and cancel racing for the day and send us home but instead they sent us out at around 3.30pm and try to get two races in, this in theory would be crazy just coming from experience of the last weeks and how long it takes to get a fleet away with all the generals. I was in the red fleet which was the last of all 4 fleets to start, we eventually got a couple of races in and in some tricky winds and extreme amounts of tide made it very hard to stay focused especially after waiting all day doing nothing. We eventually finished the races and came in, by this time it was 9.30 at night and I pretty much threw everything on the boat, road home had something to eat and went to bed.

 

 

Today the wind picked up quite a bit and I was missing the 4 odd kilos I lost after my cold last week, that extra weight would defiantly come in handy, now I am 62.7kg but over the last week I have been eating like crazy to try and build it back up to at least what it was. I haven’t checked recently but I think I have made some success. The last couple of days I have been starting very conservatively because I don’t want to get another black flag so I have been staying a bit far back from the line and as a consequence have been getting rolled each start and getting very bad positions and always having to catch back up but to still end badly. Today would have been better but I think over the last week the regatta has been that frustrating that I was more glad to get in on time today rather than hear of my bad positions. I had had enough of getting the bad positions and it wasn’t teaching me anything so I thought just go for the start and I if I end up with another flag then so be it as long as I have learnt a greater lesson. Just when I was doing this and about to get a good start another competitor sailed over the front of my bow and pushed me back on the line just in time so that I couldn’t recover. I didn’t see him so I couldn’t protest and I didn’t have enough time to get back on the start so as a result I was deep from the start and had to catch up, I was 3rd last around the top mark and probably caught about 20 boats or so back up but still not at all happy with the result.

 

 

Some more news is that on the spare days Ryan, Ben and I went to a sweet water park in land a little bit. It was the hottest day they have had here for a long time and everyone was out at the beach, they even ran out of the Sunday paper at the corner store there was that many people. But anyway we went to the park and had an awesome time but just as we got out of a slide we saw a big fight between a gang of black people and the police and park security. It even got to the point where blood was spilt, pepper spray in the eyes and it even got carried by the wind into us and it wasn’t good (it stung my eyes and it tasted very bad) and physical abuse by the police, it was pretty crazy.

 

 

Overall very unhappy with how im sailing right now!

 

 

Well that’s all for now – time to go to bed – yet another day of sailing tomorrow! Missing everyone ; )

  15. wedding invitations says:

    Is it acceptable to have a unique wedding invitation wording even if you are planning a traditional wedding? Absolutely. While some people like to coordinate their wedding invitations with the style of their wedding, it is not strictly necessary. If you have a fun or different idea for your wedding invitations, then, by all means, choose the that you want. If you plan on celebrating with a formal ceremony, make sure to mention that on the invitation, such as “black tie requested”. On the other hand, if the is off-beat people may assume that your wedding will be a more casual affair unless you specifically state otherwise. Putting the information on the wedding invitation prevents any confusion.

    These days, brides are careful with their wedding budget and it’s appropriate because of the economic crunch plaguing the

    country. With a small budget to guide them,discounted

    available and these are not freakish or comical – these are lovely frocks that would be the envy of big spenders and it’s all

    a matter of careful planning and dogged shopping.
