Rob from Burnside

To whom it concerns, hi I am writing to you, to inform you of a new club I have formed “Pacific Fleet Windsurfing inc” A non profit club, this winter to focus on introducing a summer sport to all kids but focusing on Maori and pacific kids to help redirect their attentions away from contact sports and couch sports and back into an outdoors healthy exciting self-satisfying extreme sport of windsurfing a sport that I feel has not been presented to maori and pacific peoples for a range of miss guided reasons, so I ask your firm if you or any of your workers kids would like to participate in this exciting opportunity,

Ok so lets do a Pro’s and Cons!

Cons: bad for relationships, during windy periods.

Constant desire to escape work during windy days

an addiction to Metsurvice and Windguru. wind information sites,

A drive to know weather conditions during conversations then an unexplained reason to leave conversation at a moment's notice.

Unplanned expenditures at local sports shops during financial crucial moments.
