Sounds to me that you are Pizza deficiant... try my meal plan.... 1/2 a pie for breakfast, 1/2 a pie for lunch... then an extra large with pepperoni and mushrooms (for your recommended allowance of veggies) for dinner... don't forget to snack between meals... (i suggest pizza)

Two words; "chemical" & "propulsion".


Based on looking at my A, I think that is how Marstom gets the interior part of the mold out.

I'm not 50kg's!! more like 77... and Herbie is about the same.

in fact, the top 6 boats would all be within 10kg in crew weight so the band is getting tighter.

First Capricorn was in 27th I believe.. Stuart Gummer?

Also Shockwave was inside top 10 which was a good result.
