Memories of Mirror sailing at SYC in May 1976 . Paul Bartlett ( wearing yellow buoancy aid ) and myself ( holding the jib in blue top ) standing by our Mirror pre race and also picture having just launched . We were young in those days - how time has flown but we're both still going ( just ) and still keenly enjoying our sailing and racing . There was a good keen fleet of Mirrors in those days, including Paul's brother David and Andrew Hayes . David my brother is in the bottom left - note 70's long hair hairstyle . Those were the days !!
