The decision's made, the sale's completed and my days as a yacht owner are over
. So why on earth am I keeping the Laser and looking forward to racing it?

I’ve had a few of those but the smoking one worked. I gave up on New Years Eve at the millennium and started putting what I had been spending on the, about a fiver a day, in a jar. Periodically I used it to buy something nice. Initially it was a CD player, headphones, a smartphone ( bought an Ericsson R5220M I still have) and the I decided to use it to buy shares. Mostly safe bets but a few odd ones ( I bought Apple at 33c in 2001) and the6 became the backbone of my investments today. Haven’t smoked a single cigarette in that time.In theory.
I've done a few things in my life that should have caused me to become richer. None of them worked.
I gave up smoking because I worked out that I could afford to do another rally (strictly club level) a month if I did. Nope
1985 vintage boat predates ILCA by many years.ILCA, please!
Yes, that's what I should have done, but I was 20, and still knew everythingstarted putting what I had been spending on the, about a fiver a day, in a jar.
