the world is burning to the ground

sorry for not updating, i'm simply too lazy. well lets start from the last post, in october we had our holidays followed by a regatta at illawarra, known colloquially as the smelliest place on the aussie calander. it was strong wind there abt 15-25 knots throughout the weekend, the first full strong wind regatta i've had in the radial, didn't do that bad, finished 6th, just behind alex.. it was a fun weekend though, alex's mom, alex, ash and i went down together and stayed at the same place, it was good... then, i met lyndall and team canada. we coach together every sunday, optimists, ya, team canada: topher and jaimie, well in a nutshell they bring life to the club.. they sail the 49er and often are quite funny. lyndall is great too, she is mature and adds sense to the conversations, and theres alex who's just fun all around. this month theres has been an influx of many international sailors, this has caused me to come to training more often and as a result, i come every wednesday and thursday. last week, kevin came back from his stint as a doctor, its good to have him back. we went training yesterday and it was tiring. i sailed a full rig due to the perception that it was 'light' wind, however, the wind picked up to about 13 knots and we went offshore, we saw alot of dolphins though. with me were world champion, tom slingsby, 4 canadians including mike and abe, kevin and jye.. i finished last almost every time but it was a good experience... today, i had school... sigh... alrite... until next time... ttfn
