Its that time of year again when you are not allowed to eat ouside, or smoke or generally do anything. Ramadan is fast approaching the UAE and Dubai Moth fleet. Thankfully I am going to be away at the Euro’s for ten days of it…… which is a bloody good thing. 80 odd entries is a very good turn out and will make the start line pretty interesting if its windy.
I have not sailed for three weeks now, its just too hot and there is no point going sailing in 50 degree’s to get sunstroke and learn nothing. Its not even worth it to try and keep sharp, so I am flying into the Euro’s on the Thursday and will hopefully be sailing late friday night. Spend most of saturday on the water too. I am not sure I am going to get involved in the dash for cash… I have never been very excited by it to be honest and I do not think its a particularly fun experience worrying about crashing into other people is not what I’m into. I only took part in the US dash for cash half heartedly and didn’t do the one in Dubai as I had the flu. I’d rather go crusing with my friends and just go sailing, funny what money does in the world.
I got my first speeding ticket in my new car last night.. that didn’t take long. Woopsie, I was in a bad mood and driving pretty quickly, as you can in Dubai without fear of the PO PO pulling you up. Good thing here is I won’t loose my license. Its more of a wallet bashing.
I am moving house next week as well… again… all in all, I am so farking broke at the moment I could do without the trip to Switzerland, but I am committed I suppose.
Anyways people.. Peace.
