Monday was dead. Yesterday was busier was still whey down on what they said it would be (was supposed to be 25000 each day - 800 on the first day). Today wasn't too bad, and once the sun came out it was actually not a bad day. I'll post some more picies later....

Not to mention cleave off a limb if you happen to be sat in the back bench seat and the boat gets stuffed into a wave

They look well dangerous...

Went today and found it as quiet and not too enthralling again this year.

No one seemed to want to talk to you as too busy eating/drinking/chatting to colleagues. Lucky enough to have free -ish tickets but still not a patch on RibEx... still wouldn't pay for it. Feel it needs some serious work to encourage attendance from traders and buyers alike.

Tell her to come and see me at Ribex - I would be interested in her comparison with our race boat!
