I might as well explain my absence to the Pevensey Massive seeing as I was spotted by a couple of forum people today. I went to Shorum and had myself a fantastic afternoon courtesy of the Baker Academy. What a top bloke and a very, very patient coach. His task was to cajole a complete jesse to sheet in and go round the front. I'd say we got to a refusal at the second fence, but the fact that I made the first was progress and my body got thrown around more than was healthy. Shoreham was beautiful today in the sun and it was perfect 5m weather for me, so quite windy. It wasn't wavey, but that suited me and the conditions were perfect for a bit of coaching. I would have enjoyed normal freesailing there (which I did for about an hour before packing up), but it wouldn't have been mega interesting - yet having Ant sail along with you feels very indulgent and it gives you something to do and try other than sailing up and down. I'd highly recommend anyone who could get to Shoreham easily to have a go with a bit of coaching. I'll be back for sure - thanks Ant.

All in all, I'm very glad I did the bunk. Now got to try to hide the tan tomorrow. My body has virtually siezed up now though as it's my first proper sail since December.
