This one was for Gracey

Woke up this morning to a blinding head ache, wind hadn't eventuated and just when I didn't think the day could get any worse I got the news that Tony Grace (Graceman) of the Perth southsiders had lost his battle with cancer last night.

Headed down the run to find Crasher and Adrian down there and a uppy downy sorta kinda winda, riigged he bigger gear for the lulls, hit the water and my head was pounding, the pointer was fun but wasn't doing what it should and I couldn't be stuffed playing around with it so changed to the weedy.

Try as I might I couldn't crack a 30 today got within a poofteenth of it.

The wind eventually died and we went back to shore, after much fannying around with the packing up (I hadn't started) the breeze came back a bit, so I went back out to put a couple of extra runs down for TG, hope you liked them mate it was f'ken hard seeing through the tears.

So Tony, Farewell mate, It was a pleasure knowing you and sailing with you, through f'ked up knees and having a cancerous kidney removed  you never bemoaned your circumstance and were allways positive you'd beat the bastard, sadly this was not to be, I'd like to think you gave death a swift kick in the nads before you were carted of but knowing you you'd probably be talking to him about hockey or sailing as you wandered of into the sunset
