Ok Hosko,
Just so you can sleep well tonight - it wasn't you unless you have had a sex change recently?

(settle down - just having a laff - hopefully
with you not
at you). Maybe the kite in question was your girlie as I had forgotten there were two pink kites together (at Brighton BTW not Scabs) but it was definately the girlie taking a 'not budging from my line and not even lowering my kite - both in and out' approach.
So maybe before you start to get personal take a big aarsed breath and calm down.

I would liked to have had a quiet word on the beach with the lass but was way out back when I noticed the kite packed up and gone. I did give her the tip out on the water that she should give way a bit and couldn't have ROW both ways. Yes it did include one expletive, as after nearly an hour and half of it, I was jacked. Due to the fact that I had given way to avoid a tangle each time I was getting low on diplomacy.
I'm not a serial whinger and don't get off on slanging but this lass needs to learn to give and take a bit perhaps? Oh and keeping the kite high/low - depending on situation - is courtious and would help also. As I said there were hardly any kites out on the day so it was pretty annoying.
Anyhoo nobody died, lots of stacks, a couple of shame walks and a couple of decent jumps and alls well that ends well.
