I was all framed up for a weekend's sailing. When it came down to it I had two choices:- a) Drown in the freezing grey solent in a force 6 gale & lashings of cold rain. b) Drown in a vat of warm red wine with a hot chilli & lashings of sour cream.
I chose the latter. I chose well. But by god I have a raging headache this morning, wish I'd pulled a sickie. Sailing is for mad people.
