but where will they sleep ive packed up their beds , sold the furniture and moved into their room.
I bet theyll come back for the free driving lessons tho
so far on the new "old lathe" ive made some skippng rope handles. got tolearn all this stuff from scratch. havent landsailed since the easter rains, but have managed 3 trips to a dam to humble myself as a novice windsurfer.
I planed for nearly 20m on monday before exiting stage left.
mate!!! landsailing is sooooo.... easy to do
you even need to learn how to fall off properly on a windsurfer

WOOOOOHHOOOOOO!!!!!!

Congratulations! What a feeling eh? All that slogging around, wondering why you do it, then whooshka suddenly you're accelerating up to warp speed, the water's 'frozen', steering becomes really touchy, and your grin reaches itself around the back of your head

You're hooked now, there's no turning back

yes but my new weedy speed fin made the board just go straight. buggered if I could get it to steer downwind, but Im to embarrassed to post on the windsurfing forum cos Id hear all the laughing over the rumble of todays usual earthquakes
( 2 today!)
Oh and my old wetsuit needs a very large gut insert so I can even start to zip it up

Push the sail forward more, sheet in and lean out a bit more. You'll get the hang of it soon enough
