Given that the most active thread on these forums is called "Drift a thread" (it's in the Lounge, there may be dragons and things in there) I wouldn't worry about going off topic on the YBW forums too much. It's not generally considered a hanging offence (unlike other forums)

And welcome on board by the way!

I have been on all the Strata boats and the East Anglian Sailing School is a really good place to learn..........but sailing for 5 days at a time with 5 other people sharing the space and doing the cooking isn't for me. I stuck it out until I became totally disillusioned with the RYA and then I gave up. If it had been single days at a time and none of that cooking bollocks I would have completed the whole lot but instead SWMBO bought a boat:-) Much cheaper too surprisingly.

Yeah I get that. This was me plus three friends so no strangers to share with. We chartered the boat and paid for the instructor, rather than signing up for a predefined course; it was really good. Cooking is something you love or hate, personally I enjoy producing a good meal under difficult conditions, but then I like camping too... :-) Same diff.

Bottle or two of red always helps.

I think it was just out of sympathy:-) I can live alone quite easily and eat correctly too but maybe not to the standard expected when preparing other peoples food.
