Back to Normal

It seems as though things are back to normal. After a few days absence here I'm now back online and back on the water.

We're now living in a caravan which even has electricity now, but still no gas or water (we're working on it). Dave and Sarah have also kindly allowed me to set my computer up in their house so I can try to keep updating and hopefully improving the site.

And, after a couple of weeks with virtually no wind at all, its back!! Sunday afternoon looked perfect here in Borth. Blazing sunshine and a decent 16 knot Northerly wind. I couldn't make the most of it as I was too busy moving boxes etc, but I know Ben got out on the water and Dave and Sarah should have but didn't get around to it.

Today was better again though (full details in the diaires).

Hehehe, I had an even better session today

Looks like thats the last of the wind again for a while though, back to the boring high pressure and sunshine here.

Whats everyone up to this weekend??

You seemed pretty drunk when you posted on here a few weeks ago Olly!!

I managed to get out again today for a surprise session. only 15 knots of wind, but enough to get me planing and do the odd chop hop. The sun was shining too.

Looks like I shall have to work all day saturday now to mkae up for the 3 early days I've just taken to make the most of the wind. Then theres still loads to sort out as far as the caravan goes... We have gas as well as electricity now though... The only thing we can't do is shower!
