Distance Covered:

Day one of 3 on the bounce with wind forecast coinciding with temps over 10degC.
This one was always going to be the warm up session with 18mph forecast, but with 30mph forecasts for the following two days.
Got to Camber and Rich, Rob & Chris were already rigged, so saved myself a walk over to check it out and rigged slightly bigger than Rich (Xmas pud allowance ;-) taken into account)
Got rigged and headed over the dunes, and scored an okay 45 mins or so before we got a lull. The wind swung W for a bit and went gusty, then came back a bit. This was the pattern for the rest of the day to be honest. When it was working you could score a decent couple of runs, then lull again.
Good practice for blubbing out I guess, but not what I'd hoped for really, and I wasn't alone.
Good to catch up with the Camber posse again after the festivities .... but tomorrow I need to play closer to home .... Pevensey Bay is due a re-visit methinks :-)
