Wind on its way

The wind looks OK for Tuesday and Wednesday...

Shame I'll be working, but hopefully I'll be able to fit some evening sessions in. Will anyone else still be around?

I have the week off and will be on da beach Tuesday. Not sure what time we'll stay until though. Andy

Looking good at the mo... 25-30 knots NW, just contemplating whether or not to go out for an early one before work.. It 5am now and perfectly light out there.

DUDES - Leonardo Da Bok here! Full on Easterlies predicted for the weekend! is there a potential for the borth-effect to kick? I'm thinking of heading down if the borth effect is likely to kick in this late in the year! Warm too.

Would be awesome to catch up with everyone again.

Hi Leo, good to see you back here!

Weekend is looking pretty good at the mo and Ivor could well be on top form... keeping an eye on it for the next couple of days but at the moment it looks promising.

We're hoping Ivor turns up, with the weather probably coming down on Friday and staying for a couple of days.

Excellent... I missed you yesterday as I was working in the morning, mountain-biking in the afternoon and then went windsurfing in the evening and managed to catch the windiest part of the day (purely luck).

Forecast suddenly looks pretty poor for the weekend.

No, not looking good anymore. Still coming down to catch some sun on the beach anyway. Will probably be camped out in the estuary if there's any light wind for Jules to get out on the water.

Don't give up yet, there's still a chance that Ivor could put in an appearance.

Will you be bringing bikes as well Andy? Fancy a ride if there's no wind?

Well, it touched 21 knots an hour or so ago but doesn't quite seem to be able to do it.

COME ALONG IVOR!!!

Its just teasing

There was plenty in the estuary and lots of people out kiting. 20 knots anyway and the sun was shining.

There was enough wind for me but it looked a little busy out there by the time there was enough water so I didn't bother.

Pretty windy at the mo... averaging around 20 knots here, probably 25 in the estuary.... Shame there isn't any water for a few hours!
