On our way home one day, we had to avoid the ladder across the middle of the road. Just as well that we did, because as you can see there was someone half way up it!
Does this comply with the working at height regulations? As far as ladder safety goes, take a look at the angle.
Garry - confused!
Our friend Gary (skipper and owner of El Coyote) very kindly lent us his small boat. Scott, Alison and Garry took it out for a play and had a great time and wondered why we hadn't been doing more of it. Scott who was supposed to be going to Phuket, but like us got caught in the Pattaya black hole, is thinking of buying a boat - note to Scott, get your finger out, we want to do some more sailing.
We did another race weekend in Pattaya on El Coyote. This guy keeps turning up. We were going very well on the Saturday, until we had a minor saill problem (the head sail ripped in half). On Sunday, we carried out extensive first class repairs to the sail, both pre and during race, only eventually having to retire with a minor steering problem. A little disappointing as we were going really well at the time. Due to our consistent performance, we are now lying joint second in the overall points table. Since we left Pattaya, the team has been racing again, but we haven't had an update yet. Will one of you let us know how you did? Did you beat Patience 5 and which sail did you use? Hopefully see you again for the decider on 16th August!
This is the race tactics and post mortem meeting.
Les is in red shorts - he has been racing with us. Francis is the other guy and he has also raced with us but was not able to take part in the race on this particular weekend.
Tony - fellow crew member and sail repairer and Siam.
On our last night in Pattaya (at the Standard), we popped in for a quiet beer. These guys (Francis and Nina) turned up and didn't leave until 2.30 am. Our early start the next morning was somewhat compromised!
Again, on our last night Scott and his girlfriend turned up and contributed to the mess! His girlfriend is an awesome snooker player, even at 1am!
This is Om who works at the standard.
This is Jojoe with Jemima, Arabella and Amber. Arabella is only 7 years old, but you don't want to take her on at Connect 4!

Wait till you see the next blog because our experience on the way to Phuket was awesome. It is so exciting!
