" The Oscar Nominations of ARC Sailing",
the prize giving event, the one that concludes the show, the final party, and the 'saying good-bye' to many new friends. This time it was held on the 21st of December 2012.
And we had a lot of fun !
Have we won anything ?
Well, surely not on the sailing side. But there are so many prizes, on Safety, on Youngest Skipper, Youngest Participant, Oldest Participant ( I almost won that I believe ! ), but no, nothing for us.
And then ......for the best WALL PAINTING, and the Winner is
" Champagne ",
Hey Hurray, that is us !!!!!!
and the artist's name is :
FATI
WE HAD ALMOST FORGOTTEN.
The 3 days work of her, hanging on the ridge of the port wall, and painting her heart out. And when her work was finished, we said already that somebody might brake out the bricks, because it is really a very good and probably expensive painting.
And then with all the excitement we had forgotten about it.
Anyway, her prize was a dinner for 4 in a nice restaurant in Saint Lucia.
We are still waiting for our invitation, and it is January already.
Here we are, there are 2 mysteries in my life left :
DIESEL ENGINES AND WOMEN.
I think I am on the brink of a major break-through to understand the first.
Yours, Master Mike.
ps : Fati also takes on commissions varying from restaurants to private homes, be it abstract or portraits, or else. If anybody wants to consider some work to be done by her, pls get in touch. I will forward it.
