waited for wind but nothing happenin!

Spent all avo waiting for wind at the lagoons at dyfi, wind guru was forecasting 11knts at 3 oclock but it didn't really get above 7knts, not enough even for that monster titan of mine, oh well.
Anyone else manage to get a ride? Were col, neil or graham over the other side?
cheers

It got pretty windy where I was, up to about 15-16 knots, but by that time I was committed to doing other things so didn't get out.... Maybe tomorrow.

Nope... I was in Bristol and planning to go to WSM, but ended up getting roped into shopping for a suit for my impending wedding!!!

aah, there were some kitesurfers up from cheltenham yesterday, for the day, who had decided to give WSM a miss and go to dyfi instead! Looks like they would have been better off staying south.
As for the wedding stuff, I got married last year so know where you're coming from, I hired my suit. Went to maldives for the honeymoon, which was cool.

I did think of getting a custom made wetsuit designed to look like a dinner suit or something.... Decided it might be a little too warm for a July wedding though!!!

We're off to the Outer Hebrides for our honeymoon.... Should be some wind there!

Bucksi... Are you still around? There might be some wind this evening.
