Rule 69 Blog

Always enjoyed Magnus, was quiet for a week, now it's closed, any info?

His RSS feed is still alive here is the last entry, I hope all is OK with his family

Apologies for lack of posting this week. My wife is ill in hospital and I've had a bit on chasing around and getting things organised domestically.
Good news about Cowes Week signing up AAB...you heard it here first!

Will hopefully be posting by middle of next week. Until then go to Sailing Anarchy for the real gossip, Yachts and Yachting for the news or The Daily Sail for intellectual commentary...and if you have an iPad make sure you look out for the next issue of Sail Racer Magazine - I've had a preview and it's awesome.

Until next week sometime. Magnus

Love that blog! Hope he is okay.

Holding page saying the site is closed....

When he re-started he had no advertising so he couldnt be strong armed by the advertisers over his content

Wonder who shut him down this time...ISAF, Ernesto (again), Star class, Finn class, ISAF, his Boss, etc etc etc.....

Actually, I hope it is "someone" shutting him down, and not domestic troubles/tragedy. All the best, MW!

sadly, his wife is very sick and he is attending to her, his real job and all that all of that entails. a good bloke and we wish for the best his family.

I loved his blog, and I hope everything is okay for him. I'm sure he'll always have a guest spot on the front page.

It sounds like Clare is pretty sick, and would benefit from all the positive energy and/or prayer that we can send her way.

Ed can you front page this?

i have always enjoyed reading his blog, i hope he and his family pull through these difficult times... sometimes sailing must take the back burner.

+1 he is an exceptional advocate for keeping this sport real and in summary, sportsmanlike.

My sincerest best wishes to Magnus and his family.

Here's wishing Magnus and family good luck and hope they get through this OK. Let him know there are plenty of sailors out there pulling for him and his wife.

I too am missing my regular dose of irreverance from Magnus.

+1 on the best wishes to him and his family!

Magnus' wife would not be all that happy to see the world know of her troubles via the front page, but he is very aware of how much this community cares and asked me to convey his thanks.
