Distance Covered:

Had to work this afternoon when it\'s optimal low tide, so decided to have a bash at mid-to-high tide at about 8.30am.

Took over the 16m, but the wind picked up and the whitecaps appeared, so went for the 11m instead. But once that was up it clouded over and the wind dropped. So i had a couple of downwind drags before the kite dropped perilously close to a groyne. So after 15 crap minutes I packed up. And I was barefoot which was a stoopid idea as I was on shingle, not low tide sand.

Gets 2 stars not 1 as it was still a learning experience, even if not fun.
