I'll be glad when he's in front. The trouble is I still have to watch Trev but at least I am looking over the other side and I don't need binoculars.
Why does 'Slowly slowly catchy monkey' send shivers up my spine? It has the same effect as SWMBO filing her nails. It's giving me goosebumps just typing this. Eurrggh!
Dyflin's in a good position and could get very near the front. BUT (notice it's a big but /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif) the great white hole near Cape Town could sink it's teeth into anybody. It's possible a boat further back could have a straight run through whilst the leading pack wander off course.
Make sure Mrs F doesn't overtake you. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
That's it, I'm retiring as champion of the YBW league!
But seriously, I need more wind, the boat is outrunning the depression and I may well be overtaken yet. Don't think I haven't seen the Booby over my shoulder!
I'm out there under the name borisdraceana as I couldn't work out how to add ybw. Looks like those of us in the upper southern pack might have the advantage of the peops further south as long as we can continue surfing the edge of the low. I've gone from the low 500's to about 270. Just hope I don't get dumped into a big white hole
