Watching 4CC, and fun discovery that I'd not seen yet this season! I love Jocelyn Hong of New Zealand's short program. Excellent commitment to the musical choice with the styling of the dress and choreography. That was a lovely skate!

I’m interrupting my normal feed to bring you an interesting tidbit in which “truth is stranger than fiction.”
On March 7 of this year, I posted on AO3 a new Sailing Husbands story - Breaking the Ice. If you haven’t read it, well please do. Imho, it’s a short, fluffy tale of what Pete and Blair - sailing stars of Team New Zealand - could conceivably do to drum up some extra cash, basically a little modelling of undergarments.
Now, in mid-March, Shirley Robertson interviewed a number of key folks around the announcement of the new America’s Cup venue for her popular sailing podcast. Her first guest was Grant Dalton, CEO of Team New Zealand. Shirley posted both Part 1 and Part 2 of her episode to her podcast yesterday.
Well, being the armchair sailor that I am, I was listening to it yesterday… And wasn’t I surprised when Grant Dalton said what he said between 18:48 - 18:55 minutes in this episode?
In case, you don’t want to listen to the podcast - although it is excellent - as part of Mr. Dalton’s philosophy that the Team Comes First: “That’s why we don’t have (our) stars selling underpants, doing underpants ads…”
A coincidence, I think not.
Soooooo - someone(s) from Team New Zealand is actually reading my stories? And bringing it to the attention of their CEO?
😆
I’m flattered my darlings, but do remember THAT I WRITE FICTION. There’s nothing to refute or set the record straight in the media.
Also, stop trying to hack my AO3 account. It’s not cool and you’re embarrassing yourselves.
But, please, do keep on reading (as I will continue spinning my fanciful tales)!
