Can't believe it! There hasn't been any breeze for so long I have probably forgotten how to gybe, and then this Saturday some rellies I haven't seen since 1969 have come half way round the world to see me on the only day that there has been a forcast of over 20 knots! What are the fkn chances!!! How do find out in advance if you are in a will?

time to take a chance.

shoot them as they walk in the door,

if you're in the will good outcome, if you're not in the will good outcome.

either way it's a win win situation.

Krisiz1, Firstly, you have'nt forgotten how to gybe, you just have'nt done it for a while. This for married people has the obvious connotation.
Secondly, 1969? realisticly if it's a reciprocal relationship, what thought have they put into your personal wellbeing in the last 41 years?
Now if it's family, then the term probate comes to mind.
Go for a sail and if they're there when you get back, they must want something!

Stop complaining. There have been bugger all days since Christmas where the wind got over 20 knots in Sydney.

Anyway invite them down to the beach so they can see what you enjoy. It will give you something to talk about.

That's a really good idea.

Similarly Perth has a really good forecast for today and Saturday but there is a health warning on the river following the storm and authorities advise to stay well away from it for a week.

Wind in Bunbury - yeh right. Been watching the forecast all week. Initially was going to be SSE - decided to go for a yacht in Busso instead. Better not blow.

Booked for Exmouth again.

Sorry for lack of wind - bought new boom and harness lines the other week...

Un fkn believable. Dear old Auntie Jean has contracted pleuracy on the plane trip over!!!!! Poor dear is laid up in Perth. I am of course grief stricken, so to console myself I race to check the forcast. They have DOWNGRADED IT!!!
