Made it out today after a two day absence due to hectic-ness at work and high tide in the afternoons. Again, thought it wasn´t that windy so took out my 5.2...again....DOH!!! Mahussively overpowered even with the sail rigged completely flat, could easily have been on my 4.6. So session was very similar to the last one in that I couldn´t really do much, although this time I was sailing even worse, and muppeting up at regular intervals. Not a very satisfying session. Arse.

Really need a good one to get back into it now, since in the past few days I haven´t really been in the right frame of mind due to other things (e.g. tiredness due to lots of work, painful cuts in my feet) and I just haven´t enjoyed the last few sessions as much as I should, given the superb conditions. (Superb conditions being wind that is starting much earlier, at around 11am, and generally blowing a lot stronger, plus some nice small waves.....plus sun, heat, warm water etc etc). Hopefully my day off on Friday will deliver and get me back into the swing of it, with the tide now being just right in the afternoons i.e. low. Bring it on.
