With a work ethic like that you will fit right into the Mobsters

All we need to do now is fatten you up to a respectable level +20kg should do as a start

Thats a bit of an exaggeration

102kgs with a rucksack

They don't make them that big

It is supposed to be as simple as calories in vs calories out.

I think I do ok with the first so how do I change the second (any ideas gratefully considered

)

Eat at the Alcoa canteen it will either block you up tighter than a fishes armpit or have the opposite effect.

It's a risk I'm prepared for you to take

Thanks for the tips Elmo and Bender.
On a more serious note: anyone care to comment on the Seabreeze and Windfinder forecasts for Perth/ Mandurah for Monday?

er, I have a um er friend, and he keeps seeing wind in the t-tress when there isn't much and keeps hoping that it is going to pick up even when he knows full well it is unlikely and not forecast. What would you recommend I my friend should do?

I have also noticed the my friend keeps looking out of the window despite the huge impossibility of the wind having suddenly gone from 7 to 25 knots

.

Please help. Is there a windsurf-a-holics group I he could join?

It's only a problem if it's a problem!

Relax, you're not alone, I bet 90% of people here have this bug to a greater or lesser extent.

It's just a matter of excepting it as "normal" behavior, instead of weird. It's only non windsurfers who don't understand, and if they care about you will get used to it in time.

I keep my windsurfing a secret from people I meet...

No-one at work knows I'm addicted...

I bring a little hip flask of Peel inlet water in to work so I can sniff it every now and again when no-one's looking...

You're not alone

My friend asked me to thank you for you ideas (I am a little worried as he appears to be talking to himself). He appears to have loaded a number of icons and other items associated with his religion into his car muttering about the possibility of immersing himself in murky brine tomorrow afternoon. There appears to be little hope for a short term cure.
He also believes others may join him. His delusions appear to be getting grander and grander.[}:)]

You're Sick

How did you manage to find a flask resistant enough to hold it.

I can understand sniffing it as it would give you good enough symptoms and such a rotten smell that any sick leave request would never be blocked

Well I'll be working to midnight tonight and will have racked up close to 800km by the time I get home.

Soooooooo

If theres wind I'm going sailing on the dawn Patrol tomorow, still undecided whether waves or Speed, all depends on strength and direction.

May be a fang early and a wave later.
