I wanna see u in an easter bunny out fit

Thinking that maybe I could paint out the stripes on my Zebra outfit....or just convince the kids that rabbits are stripy.

what can i say... ,Oh what a glorious summer,
I might go round to ANTs and count how many pubes he has grown on his balls since going up North so much.

Sorry Al, meant " tenticles".
Getting mixed up with fishing comp.

Gill, like you I'm deeply offended by the, as you call it, the laddish conversation above...................very childish I think.
You on the other hand are much more interesting.................ah er umm..........I mean the fact that you talk about the wind and the possibility of a sail is more the type of discussion we encourage on this forum

Gillianv said..

Hopefully with less ladish conversations like those above.

+1.

No offence blokes, but sailing is far more interesting.

Following on from Al's problem state, ie "The complexity of theorem proving procedures" P=NP.
Up north there are only 2 states, sailing or drinking.
Easily solved, although bunny suits would have been a welcome addition to the brewery bar last night.

4 empty little plastic cups and no one stepping up to buy the next round.

You guys seriously drinking or just staring at a camera??

Your right Ant plenty of opportunity to sail... in the last year I sailed 250 times... I am still pretty useless at it... but really Ive had a ball...not such a bad way to goof your time away.

Lucky retired people. Took my retirement too early (back in my thirtys) now I'm paying for it, working long hours to make up for it. I remember the days I used to have sailing charts of where I sailed, what direction & what size gear. Think I'll be working until I'm 90 now.

Guess what.! There's plenty of wind to go sailing. Going to hit the water after lunch.

I hear that someone may have pulled the trigger on the weekend... how is the nose of the board greenie??

GreenMachine said..

Ha ha Hamish!!
Yep pulled the trigger on a forward and smashed the nose of what was once my favourite board.
All repaired now and ready to pull the trigger again

Nice work Greeny it sounds like you need a free Severne tee shirt. There is one here at the shop for you

I also have a couple of extra tees which look a bit like Mediums and am willing to listen to reasonable and unreasonable arguments as to why anyone should get a tee (owning at least one Sevene sail is probably a prerequisite although donations of beer may be considered)

I also have some very large Starboard stickers up for grabs.

Hey Al
I organised that cutie reporter to come knocking on your door. Does that earn me a T shirt. I also have a BLUE Severne sail and make home brew!!

Do I look like Miley Cyrus (Ok so there is a faint resemblance), but unlike her I despise the paparazzi!!! I wont hold this against you, there is a tee shirt waiting for you.

Can I reserve a large sticker for the Rosey Red Bus of our Mayor and President, and captian of the Rosey Life Saving Club - Mr Broomby
Seriously.
Please.

As it happens, I have 3 Severne Sails and would be more than willing to 'fly the flag' until the Tee is well and truly worn out (as you all know).

My average T-shirt age is about 3 years and so I would be a good investment......

Sold?

And, I did encourage Greenie to stick a large, foam pillow onto the nose of his ex-favourite board, in anticipation of a few more 1/4 turns.

I think that he considered that it would look too un-cool, so he rebuilt the nose in SOLID glass / resin. That shift in C of G should make the forward rotations easier, oddly enough.
