Sailing
Does anyone on this forum do sailing other than me? I thought I'd just ask as it's one of my favourite pass-times. If so how good are you and have you taken part in any compertitions.

I have a 28 foot sailing boat, Maxi Fenix, and each summer I use to sail around the Swedish west coast between Gothenburg and Norway among the islands. Never been in a competion. I’m too lazy and prefer to stay on unhabited islands and catch some fish and shell food. 
My boats name is “Taiga” and it is the russian name of the vast Siberian forests.
(The picture shows the type of boat – it’s not a picture of me.)

Erm, this thread is about six years old. I'm going to delete your post in a few days unless you have a funny story to share about how you came across it!
(I'm guessing you were just Googling forums to spam.)

"erm" is something SAID when you have trouble organising your thoughts. To write it is the zenith of pretentiousness and stupidity. You aren't impressing anyone.
I say you need new moderators. I think Frealiks would be perfect

Or it's used as a figure to show that you're slighty perplexed by something (or something in that direction).

Would be quite nice to see Grannen again... just to see how he's doing (If he's doing).

You are a dirty chav. Possibly even a violent skinhead. And a Brit to top it off.

He had a pretty sound theory until he got pwned. And by pretty good I mean lol. And by lol I mean I wasn't clever enough to follow any of it.

I was talking to Huz, but that's nice to know anyway. Is Alice actually related to F.E.A.R (that is F.E.A.R, right?)

Alice is in no way related to Alma, the girl from F.E.A.R.
Alice is from American McGee's Alice.

Actually attempted to play that once. Okay platform game, but not great. If the movie ever gets made I hope it keeps the style.

The idea's good, and the art design pretty good as well as the characters. It's the gameplay that gets me. fairly basic stuff.

Sounds like they should definitely make a movie instead of a game.
On the subject of movies, I watched Cloverfield yesterday. I recommend it to anyone, it was absolutely epic.

Oh man, I really dug Cloverfield too! I'm not sure how I feel about the possibility of turning it into a franchise though.

NNNOOO FFRANNCHHIIISEEE
I really hope they just stick with cloverfield, no cloverfield 2, no franchise at all. They have already commissioned a toy of the monster (part of the awesomeness of the film was that you hardly saw the monster, now they are making a toy?!)...
