this selling stuff buisness is so easy. couriers are great. so how much is it to set up a mail order shop??

something to do on the side, loads of kit to try, naked woman offering themselves to me just to get sponsored and have there silly little photo taken on their trade price rocket fish!!!

ah the dreams....

Mmmm...Free naked chick with every trade price rocket fish:tongue 3d: I'll have 2 please and so will my mate

You'll clean up with offers like that.!!

well i can't be that hard some "shops" sell loads a gear and have no idea what there selling. it would seem they just wana make money.

that's it exactly! all the gear no idea! and make money. easy. i reckon it would be a bit too easy though. Al has offered to make my e store for me! with my rediculous knowledge of the sport i reckon it'd be great. oh and i'll offer a dog repair servise as well, mail order!

so what are the figures how much kit do you have to buy, how do you get hold of it etc etc.

from what i gather there are a great deal of shops struggling out there and just a few making fortunes. diversification could be one secret to success; so many shops are too specialised and their product range is too limited , they are not giving themselves a chance to be as successful as others.
i assume that you have got a good wedge to buy stock Wills; a spare 30/40k will stop you having to borrow from the bank and then your profits go into your pocket and not the banks. this is assuming that you have premises where you can store your stock; of course you could deal with a certain british company and you dont have to carry any stock at all!
of course you could decide that all that work at uni to become a vet was worth it, stick to it and do one thing well and make a fortune anyway.

absolutley!!! the uni work was well worth it!!! just ebayed a load of kit and got over excited by it all!!! could never do it for real! i'd suck at it! and vetting is my life! just need to move to the coast is all. land is slowly getting me down it's awful the way your car just doesn't rust and the wind never blows and the temperature actually fluctuates. So back to the matter at hand is borth the place to be?










!

you know it is.

although maybe western oz? or brazil, or capetown.

the world is our oyster.

just a few words from the bok born and raised in probably and arguably the world's best kitespot - Cape Town..

The place rocks. Awesome weather over summer, awesome surfing in winter, bustling nightlife, beautiful scenery and all the blue sky and outdoor activities one could wish for...

but why is it then that so many young white south africans are moving to the UK??? I'll tell you why, the grass is not always greener on the other side..

Crime, people breaking into your houses so that they can buy bread for their families (and God help u if u or your missus is home when they break in), your personal car being broken into every 3-4 months for the latest sterio u've just had installed or a cheap jersey just to keep a streetkid warm at night, affirmative action where your degree means nothing as a black underpriviliged person will always get a job over you..see what i mean? just a few things to consider when dreaming about living overseas at all of these dreamlike kitemag destinations..that's just South Africa, don't even get me started on Rio, Brazil where my mum lived for more than 25 years on Copacabana Beach..I know all about it and all the stories that go with it..

In summary, i'd have to say that Cape Town and a small handful of other spots are tip top, but Ynyslas really is one helluva safe, friendly and cool spot!!!

just to add to that, I Can't wait for next weekend Dudes!!! Chris - Your Wedding is Gonna ROCK MATE!!!!!

YEEEEHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

bloody love you leo!!! what a hero!

Right on Bok,

So, is anyone around next week? the forecast looks pretty good!!!!!!!!

monday looks good if it holds i'm there, or even rhosi that looks epic

I'm with Col, I've cleared monday at work and if the promising outlook continues I'll be up sun night or monday morning.

I'm guessing no-one's about over the weekend coz it looks pretty pants?

When you about Dunk?

I'm off work from now till a week on Monday, but like you say it looks pants, so I'll be down on Monday Hope its warmer than today!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wouldn't be surprsed if there was just enough to get out on Sunday evening.... Actually I'm almost sure there will be as I have a meeting in Aberystwyth then so won't be on the beach!!

Al.

ooooo Al you are a tease!

I'm easily led - If the weather's reasonable I'll probably head down sunday PM on the off chance then

leo, thats why me and da misses are parked up in wales. safe and sound.

dunk you gotta head down with me on monday afternoon to llanrhystud. tides are looking good.

next week is a big week.

william the sonic is shaping up. infact all the bow kites are doing the biz. i'm saving all my pennies.

me too trying to convince sean to let me put a deposit down for one but he's not too keen. seems to think it will be hard to make sure i get one! what about the nova. not keen on xbow as just not gonna use it enough to get the strength in my arms to fly for long enough...

and who call's me william, honestly

i don't think the bar pressure is that much. may pop up to anglesey to fly one in october. slingshot has released one. the turbo diesel and naish are due to follow. plenty of time to check them all out.

graham is getting the cabrinah at the end of this month so we will be able to see for ourselves really how good they are.
looks like i should be up monday for the day if i dont get booked and as of now i'm not but wont be able to wet off till about 8.30,theres a chance Nick might come up too.
ah William there you are!
see you on the beach with luck

Morning all! Sounds like I've been missing out on some fun..

It's all happening on Monday eh? Chris, Llanrhystud sounds like an interesting idea. I'll check my diary. Give me a call if it's on - 0781 345 1262.

Looking forward to catching up with you all soon.....?

rhosi looks good for monday 25knots + but weather.co.uk shows 20mph for borth ssw
