A BIG thank you to all involved with the organisation of the ANEYC weekend at Ripon and Yeadon. I checked out the outside of my boat more times than I should have done, but am certain that I was not the only person to do that having seen the video. Thanks to Howard Steavenson for his slide show of earlier days of sailing 12s, and a note to anyone who has not seen these. If you get a chance to see any of them, do so you would not believe how we used to sail. Saturday night's meal was a spot on evening with plenty of old faces that I have not seen for longer than I would care to mention.
Sunday saw more vintage 12s on the water than I have ever seen before including Howard Chadwick's N2 and a recently restored N431 which I am sure everyone that saw it would say was a fantastic job. It even sailed with cotton sails!

Bravo Yvonne! Really super photos. Wish we could have been there! It was a great day for N12 sailing!

Cheers to everyone...

What fab photos - well done Yvonne! Great to see all those vintage yots sailing. Just pig-sick couldn't be there! P

At Yeadon we even managed a fanfare by an ice cream man. Nothing to do with my lot however. For that you need to go to

One day I'll find out the identity of the real icecream man!

Well, it's all in a day's life of a Bicycle Repair Man....

Any pies to spare? I've got an inner tube to patch up here and I forgot me Cow Gum....
