Geoff

Colin,
there is no mention about any inconvenience. I think we can all
appreciate your great effort in making an extremely useful piece of
software thus contributing greatly to the global sailing community
and all that at no cost for us.
Our comments (and I hope I speak for all - apologies if I am wrong)
go solely for the purpose of helping you correct and improve the
application to the benefit of all of us.
Keep up the great work.
With thanks and in anticipation of the corrected version,
Yiannos

Arrgh, it looks like I've broken it in one of the Betas. I'll fix
and
upload tonight.
Apologies for the inconvenience...
Try the release version of 1.46 or if that's broken too, Version
1.45 is at

Subject: Re: sponsors
It does surprise me that people who want to make a contribution are so
easily put off. Surely most people can get to their bank or post office
and get a pounds sterling money order, or bank draft. And, surely most
clubs will find it easier to do this for few clubs have a club credit
card. The overhead is not large and it makes it easy for Colin as well.
Judging from comments from a few months ago people would send money in
their own currency but sending in sterling is a no brainer. Maybe,
Colin, if you sorted out the publishing, and the competitors separated
from fleets problem people would send in buckets of money ( just
joking). So there is my comment for what it is worth. More succinctly,
users should make more effort to pay the poor bugger for his
considerable efforts on our behalf. Perhaps if we all came over to paint
his bathroom . .. . .

I was trying to use the prizes function this weekend and ran into a couple

have a prize indicated for the top competitor in each fleet. Any ideas how

I have to raise my hand as a guilty party. International currency and
international mail rates are just two things that I literally never deal

it and I haven't sent Colin any money. Not as any kind of statement, but

It's easy....
Pull out your check book, write a check to Colin in your local currency and
mail it to him at his address. Colin takes the check to his bank and they
cash the check (sorry cheque). The bank will charge Colin a handling fee,
but he should get the money in sterling, less a few fees.
Option two send him an International Money Order in dollars or streling, any
bank will issue them and Colin can cash them.....

Hi Donald,
Perhaps if we all came over to paint
his bathroom . .. . .
Fun development on the bathroom/mother-in-law saga. I had everything
planned to finish tomorrow night; when suddenly, this evening, Sheena (my
wife) realises that she has got the dates wrong and that in fact her mother
is arriving this evening; not only that she is actually on the plane from
Bonnie Scotland and due to land in 30 mins... So in a panic Sheena has
rushed off to the airport while I sort everything out here. After a few
minutes flapping my arms about and not really getting anything done I
decided the best thing to do was trot off to the local off-licence (drug
store?) and get a few beers. Ben (my son) had similar thoughts after
getting instructions about how to wash the kitchen floor and has gone
surfing with his friends...
One thing is for sure, Sheena'll never ask me to do a big DIY job again for
two reasons: firstly it's cost us a fortune 'cos having done the plumbing,
tiling and carpentry without any experience, I kept buying the wrong stuff
(I have loads of unused plumbing parts if anybody is interested) and
secondly it's taken me ages. So all in all a pretty good result... 
Sorry for spamming the group with this; just thought it may be an amusing
aside...
Regards,
Colin

From Norway too :
Colin, you're not alone ! If it was only one thing I should have done "last
year"... But that doesn't help you ! Well, I finished the bathroom for this
Xmas. 2 years too late. But the bathroom-door was not "perfect" until this
summer, just before my mother-in-law came...
Anyway, I never use online payments with my creditcard... (well, done it
once but...) So, please keep it open for mailing you by snailmail.
It took a while, but finaly we sent a contribution. The Banks are not very
nice serving sending money abroad. Last year we had EC for 49ers, and we
posted our SWITF code/bank code and so on for the starting fee. I think the
banks earned most on that : of $150 they took about $50 ! Amazing...
Well, it is still possible (but not recomended) to put �60 in an envelope
and mail it ! Banks sells you foreig currency promtly !
Thanks alot for good programming!
