Wow!!!!!!
What an amazing few weeks its been.
Firstly Im sorry for not keeping you all up to date, Ive been pretty busy.
Here are a couple of highlights.
We all had an amazing reception on arriving home back to Heathrow where Saskias sister picked us up. While driving home it was so funny as little Alex held my medal against the window to every car passing by, one was pretty close to swerving in to us.
It was so nice to be home and to celebrate with friends and family.
For me finally getting back home to Rotherham to see my dad was great as he had not been out in China. We sat down and watched some of the olympic highlights together laughing at each other as we were on the tv close to tears or in tears!!!!
I had an amazing party at Ulley Sailing club where it all started many years ago, it was so nice to see some of the founder members who helped teach me how to sail along with school friends and family, wow what a night.
I also had another treet while at home, a trip to Bramall Lane. I am a big Sheffield United fan and they had invited me to down to the lane to lead the teams out and parade my medal. It was so cool to be walking round the stadium and being cheered by 30000 fans, even the Cardiff supporters!!!! What a day meeting the players and being tret like real vip's even my Nan loved it!!
It was then finally back home to Weymouth over a week after landing back on British shores, it was so nice to be back in my own bed with a little bit of time to go windsurfing. We had an open top bus ride around Weymouth which was amazing, so many people turned out on to the streets to welcome us home, Nick Sarah, Bryony, Saskia and Bart were all on good form as we drove over the cause way nearly getting blown off the top of the bus.
The other real high light I nearly forgot was the Jonathon Ross show.
It was pretty cool being sat in the green room chatting to Kelly Brook!!!! and Mike Skinner from the streets oh. and Jonathon was quite a laugh too.
I feel like an office worker at the moment trying to organise my diary and reply to emails etc.... its quite hard work!!!
Im looking forward to getting back out on the water for a bit of fun with out the huge pressure and intensity, Ill see you out there!!!!
