MeddelandeYeah well, sometimes tying is a breeze. Mart ----- Original Message ----- From: Niclas Runarsson To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, June 03, 2007 2:13 PM Subject: [VFB] Tying report...
I was demo tying yesterday, at a local boat fair... was what I thought it would be when they first asked me. It turned out that it was something more festive than that. They had just finished the new pier and the fueling system at the same time as they had a 50 year anniversary. It was the first time I've tied to orchestra music... as well as the first time I've tied to a dance show (elite dancers)... as well as the first time I've tied to fireworks. But it was an outdoor tying, by the coast line. I had cold wind coming from the sea from behind (and no windbreaker). It sure was a "cool" (in both senses) tying session, but not the best conditions for CDC or marabou tying... I had to place the tools on the smaller material bags to make them stay on the table. I also sat with the sun in my face. A daylight lamp is good for tying... sun in your eyes is not. And the ones who know why I'm called Redneck Nick can probably guess how my face looks today, since my skin hasn't really adjusted to the new season. ;o) /Nick
