America's Cup
I WOULD DEARLY LOVE TO SEE THE AMERICA'S CUP BACK AGAIN - but in it's ORIGINAL order = with billowing sails that may or may not split, and MEN actually rushing to put another sail up. I know that there are many who are members of Neighbourly, but they never post a word, they just sit back and read - and they would say that proper sailing is like watching paint dry, but I've just watched approximately 30-minutes of this 'floating-sailing' stuff and that was near enough to put me to sleep... It is a pity that it is now run more for the MONEY side of things, and not the prestige of just winning the America's Cup for their country...
