Hi neighbour, I'll come over and say "hello" when I see you down there again. Enjoy the frost. At least I don't have to cut the £@%!(#+ lawn!! Lizzy D

Because I haven't paid enough attention to the forum lately, I missed that little party (Oops! Unless it was by invite only and if so, forgive me for being so presunptious.) But it you (we) do it again, Bev and I will come bearing gifts. Lizzy D

Cold? You're telling me. I went to the CYC on Saturday with Bev to check on Lizzy D and give the bilge a pump. It was blummin' freezing. In fact it was so cold, I goose pimples on my teeth and kept tripping over my own nipples! (OK. An exaggeration I accept - but it was really cold.) We went to...

This is me: ...this is Bev: ...and this is my best shipmate!

Re: Hats - I\'ll show you mine if.... Boring I know, but it's about the only hat I wear. I'm too much of a coward to brave the sea in the cold. Take care all, Lizzy D

Graham, You may recognise this one.

Hi everyone. Thanks again for the comments. Firstly, I am always ready to learn and if in a similar situation again, I'll try the main versus genoa thing again. I must admit, I saw other boats sailing and although I have had a sailer for over 10 years, I'm still learning. I think that if it's a...

Feedback sent - both barrells! Lizzy D

We had a few bumps leaving Cardiff Barrage on Friday morning. Below is a view of our port side; ...and a view of our starboard side. Wasn't much was there? Lizzy D

Hi everyone. Thank you to everyone who said nice things about my actions. I wasn't fishing for compliments, honestly. I just wanted to share my experiences and you'll see on other posts I've made, I'm quite happy to admit my mistakes, so that we can all learn from them. Interested - You said...

What a weekend the Harbour Festival turned out to be. Bev and I set off from Cardiff at 14:00 on Friday, leaving a furrow in the muddy slime outside of the Barrage. Low water? You’re telling me! We had a choppy ride over to Bristol, but nothing we couldn't cope with. We were too excited about...

Thanks mate. Got back today and as always, had a fantastic time at Bristol which is why we love going there. However - the return journey? What a nightmare. Will make a separate post of it tomorrow. It's now 20:56 and Bev's already in bed. We're absolutely shattered. Take care all, Lizzy D

Thanks mate. I hope they let dogs in. Bev, Kaiser and me are all coming. The weather is looking pants I must admit. Still, thanks to "Mr Strongbow", I'm feeling confident this evening. See you there, Lizzy D

We're going. Full crew on Lizzy for this. Does anyone know where the Mariner's Bar is? That's what the wrist bands are for but I don't know where it is. Lizzy D

Blimey! I'm not sure if I'm going to be much help to you here since you're fom Bristol, 'cos that's my favourite place to go. You can do Swansea, Ilfracombe and Minehead in a tide from Cardiff, where you can lean on a wall if you're not a bilge keeler. I did do Milford Haven in one day from...
