You're welcome.

Re: Ok, I\'ve bitten. What\'s a Lakesailoring?

So far so good. The worked example was helpful (well, it was so long as it was correct)

Now, is it so called because:
i) the Eponymous one first described it,
ii) he engages in it or
iii) he is trying to rid the world of it?

Not sure . Does it involve sheep?

Don't worry, it doesn't mean that you get your picture published wearing a nothing but a thong and a smile, well not very often anyway.

You can't have followed the link Brendan gave.

I was always too frightened to ask as I thought it had sommat to do with thongs

Re: Ok, I\'ve bitten. What\'s a Lakesailoring?

Of course, you are quite right. I should have read the link Brendan kindly provided. I have now done so and it answers all my questions. I won't be so presumptuous as to say that I now understand, but I understand better than I did. I think.

That is an attempt at Rogue Lakesailoring and could lead to Woofing.

Bloody pedants with their rule books. That's why I left my last club (and the union!) /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Re: Ok, I\'ve bitten. What\'s a Lakesailoring?

I propose a change to Rule 6.f, I believe that the suggestion of a rule change should no longer be called moosehunting but the name should instead be altered to reflect the fact that moose's are always right. Thus, moosehunting should become moosecorrecting.

Re: Ok, I\'ve bitten. What\'s a Lakesailoring?

Moosehunting came from nowhere. I don't know what tcm was thinking about, but may have woken suddenly from a siesta with the phrase at the front of his mind.
I don't think anyone has used the expression so I wouldn't get too upset. It could become a Lakeriot.(sic)
