Hey Zed
That is a pic of me, I was just about to sheet in and go forward. How can you tell??
Susie, Susie, Susie.....as you may know by now I did not sail today, but instead took said 5yo daughter to a tea party (who has tea parties at 2pm on a sunday?) it was super.....we took some blowing bubbles....I then left the tea party to hang out with the bogans at marion, bought a runnning top, some socks, and a subway sandwich.....mean while Kym (wifey) was planing across Goolwa lake, said she nailed all but one gybes, winds meant she has two sessions today, one NW at 25 knots, then a break, where she might have had a salmon baguette and a latte at Aqua Cafe, then back in the water for a SW session for an hour, 4.4 on the 266 Flow.....who says I am not a good guy? Aint love grand!?

Mate, an old saying from the bush. Usually meant for blokes who are bit of an all round fulla, can jump in and give a hand when the going gets rough.
The saying or the bits of it I cant quite remember. Went something like this referring too a gun stock man.
Whip cracker, horse rider, bronc buster, cow brander, roper, and blah blah, but always ended up with "and a bloody good windmill man" referring to the bit he or she could try hand at most things and master it after a short stint.
Others may have differant slant on it, but you get the drift
Mineral
mikey you sure are deep when you want but no worries can get the drift...divaldo i like the baguette part (made me hungry) while wifey was sailing...how i wish, how i wish...nice pics too of your sail spot..regards

Your partner doesn't windsurf.
I think I know his name:
Gestalt [}:)]
I think we are all addicted. I had a great sail yesterday so got my wind,salt,speed fix and am contentedly working. Until the withdrawals start.
I've had to "let go" 3 awesome girlfriends in 2 years because of windsurfing. All were intelligent, fun, good looking (especially the last one - yowee!), and 2 of them were 10 years younger than me (not that age matters if the chemistry is there) ... I found I just couldn't handle giving up one day of my weekend, or finding the energy to take them out somewhere nice after an afternoon of sailing ... or cutting short an afternoon of drinking at the beach with the windsurfing crowd ... and besides, they never talked about wind conditions or windsurfing gear or anything else of interest. And then I realised...I'm married to windsurfing!!!! Problem solved!! Well, except for a few minor details...

Sounds good monster.
If jp747 can dream of needsalt. I'll dream of finding one like you.
I can do picnics. As long as we get to take it in turns to sail. 
surfinchick i can do picnics too!!!needsalty can come along as well!!!that'll be a blast..monster's got his hands fullhowever, i'd miss mi wifey not trying to sail and having those arguments on the water 
boy! what a long ways to sail down under if ever you two say c'mon over!
erin don't delay the sailing thing before you know it alot of guys wish they had partners like you who don't hesitate at a minutes notice to sail...thinks so?i do
I had a girlfriend who was into sailing as much, if not more than I. She would wake me up and say "get up, it's windy", THAT'S MY LINE!
I loved her but it was never going to work, she was into flat water. I guess we were just two totally different people

No - that's top of the list of things a windsurfer should NEVER try to do.. Trying to train your wife or girlfriend is like trying to give yourself a circumcision..
There's going to be a lot of yelling, a fair bit of pain, and you won't be using your willy for anything wet for quite a while.
BUT.. that said, if the girls are as good looking, intelligent and fun as he makes out, and they're 10 years younger than he is, I'm sure we can find a volunteer to teach them on his behalf..
Especially if he's already married to windsurfing!
