congrats sausage for taking out the honours at this years qld institute of architects awards.
fantastic effort up against very stiff competition.
yep the same snags that took out the 1hr div at burrum.
awards night was tonight. he's prob still there. 
as we all know he would be too humble to post this so i thought i'd give credit where credits due. [}:)]
Guys,
Thankyou for your kind words regarding the award - still completely blown away. Just wish I could be as lucky with some wind turning up for the weekend.
Justin,
Had a great chat (I think) with Shaun Lockyer [spelling?] although you may need to apologise to him for me - I gave him some stick about his jet skiing ways.
Were you the only entry Sausage?
well done mate you must be over the moon.....does this mean you'll get more work and less time to sail
Quite the opposite we hope choco after wussing out of Green Island to practise his award winning daydreaming at home, he's used up all his shore leave and is expected on deck at regular intervals....heeeey saus
Choco,
Not the only entry, just the only entrant who bribed the jury!!
Sailpilot,
Am dying for a decent sail - went out for an hour and a half today in around 7 knots of wind and got planing for about 5metres at one point.
PS -thanks for the congratulations too.
as he is an ex windsurfer he kind of understands. actually he has a very good sense of humour to go with his design abilities.

Well done -
Is that why I couldn't see you sailing in Yeppoon you were off getting presented with awards - when i was there over the last 2 weeks - and it was windy as for a few days and not a sail in site and I searched the esplanades high and low from Emu Park to Byfield - only a couple of those kitie things - nothing worse than lots of breeze and no one using it.
Congrats Sausage,
I saw the photo in Saturdays Courier Mail Qweekend & thought the ground floor entertaining area would look good tacked onto the back of my fishing shack at Burrum
You might have to change the plans a little to accomadate the late party goers at the speed event, especially those from the far north.
No more Sausage!
No more Cheerio!
Definetly SNAG.
SUPERIOR NATIONAL ARCHITECTURAL GURU
Hoops,
