Is a sad reality, but whe I'm not distracted by feeing I have to run around after the kids , sort out thier gear, solve silly arguments, etc, I start to focus on my sailing.
Last month I managed 7 straight wins(a PB) before a slow leak in a rear tyre caused me to get beaten.

Would have been great to have the lovely wife run out with a fresh wheel midrace,

but , of course the wonderful lady was off keeping the kids occupied for a few days

.
you just cant win [}:)]
