Winter's on its way
justal - 15-10-2004 at 06:28

It;s not quite so inviting out there anymore. Its dark when I get up so early morning before work sessions aren't really possible at the moment, and its getting cold and miserable. Dunk didn't come to the beach yesterday because it was raining, and I haven't been in the water since the weekend.... Mainly because my back is still a bit sore and it hurts quite a bit after a day at work, and come 4pm it's beginning to look a little miserable out there.... Wait until Feb!!!... I need a new winter suit as well and can't afford one so it's gonna be a long cold winter for me.

Think I'll get in for a session in a minute though, there's a decent NW wind out there.... Trouble is I'm not sure that theres enough for windsurfing, and there won't be enough beach for launching and landing my kite on my own... So I might end up not getting in again.... I'll get my act together again soon.

Heard on the news that this winter is predicted to be the coldest yet for this century. If true, your gonna stuggle without that winter suit Al.
Im back into workin 9-5 everyday this week which really does suck. Been lookin forward to this coming weekend all week and the forecasts dont look very promising at all which is a big disapointment and its getting colder. Ive not sailed since last weekend which feels as though it was weeks ago especially so with havin to work..Its given me time for all my achin muscles to relax though. Im itchin to get another windsurfing session in. Just hope all the wind forecasts are out and its gonna be blowin a hoolie although thats unlikely with the low pressure slap bang over the middle of us producing this sheehite weather.


justal - 16-10-2004 at 06:25

As if they know!!... They can't even tell us what the weather will be like tomorrow, let alone predict the whole winter!... Lets hope we get some snow again though.

mNeil - 16-10-2004 at 10:26

snow please then lets get some snowkiting in!!!


Jonny - 16-10-2004 at 17:56

The snow in aber at the end of feb was awesome. 2 days of uni givin me extra time for cswk deadlines although i didnt use the extension to great effect. Playtime in the snow with the snowboard was my priority which resulted in yet another alnighter last minute cswk rush. Doubt I'd be able to get a day of work if it snowed again


Jonny - 16-10-2004 at 17:59

No wind today so washing the car was my only option. Fingers crossed for a bit of wind tomorrow otherwise it'l be next weekend before I'l be back on the water

I had already congratulated Jonny on his Avatar elsewhere... Somehow I don't think he needs a trophy when he has an avatar like that.... We wouldn't want to distract people from the avatar with a nice shiny trophy below it would we!!

what is the youg lady doing to get them to move like that ! , thats what i wouldnt mind finding out!!!!!!!!!


bucski - 17-10-2004 at 20:56

the young lady in question is obviously sitting on a washing machine, whilst on spin cycle, and simultaenously juggling 3 large water melons.
Seems quite apparent to me.
Wonder if she needs any help???
