The weather broke last week after lots of hot sunshine and it has been dreadful for the last couple of days. Winnie, Rick and Katie arrived yesterday with Reuben and we played "Phase 10" and watched "Britain's' Got Talent". Lilian and Winnie had a Precept Class on Saturday morning so I went down to Greyabbey with Katie, Rick and Reuben.

Rick had a race at the sailing club at 3.00 so I went with him in the afternoon but I'm fighting off a cold and didn't go out. I sat in the club house and watched the race through the double glazing. Saw Rick's boat capsize rounding a mark but they got righted again quickly, however it cost them a couple of places.

Good barbeque after the race despite the poor weather.
