Mishaps and Memories

Nov. 10, 2008 - laying down supper

Beinf rather contrarian, we get a group together each year for the annual 'laying down supper'......

 

As I am sure you can ascertain from the title, its a boozy affir, full of laughter and fun...

 

This year, it was (thankfully!) at our home marina, and a group of 32 people gathered on Saturday night for an evening of food and drink....

 

various prizes were awarded for achievements throughout the season, some less of an achievement than others...... suffice to say the prizes included a chicken hat, a toilet roll, and a ball of string amongst other things.....

 

Anyway, it was yet another weekend of no sailing.... which with a F10 forecast wasn't our greatest of concerns....

 

Morgana stays in this winter, an we are hoping for a few lovely winter days to get out on the water....

 

Some of you have commented that the blogging has been slow over recent weeks, and I thank you for your concerns..... its simply been the impact of a very very busy period at work, where i've been getting home too exhausted to even contemplate logging on.... normal (overly verbose) service will resume shortly!
