Sad times

It has been a difficult time for us all these last couple of weeks.  The girl's granddad passed away after a long battle with prostate cancer on Saturday 13th October and so the last couple of weeks have been given over to funeral arrangements.  It has been great to be supported by so many relatives and friends and we are most grateful to everyone who has visited and for all the cards and other supports from family and friends.  We can feel comforted to have given granddad such a good send off and I am sure he would have approved of the arrangement's and been grateful too.

This weekend we have sailors to deliver to the RYA Champion of Champions event at East Lothian YC and it is back to training for Joanne who is still trying to set up a girl-girl partnership in the Youth classes.  If all goes to plan it will be 420 training Saturday and 29ers on Sunday although the forecast is not currently looking positive with regards to wind!
