Anyone likely to be joining me on the beach tomorrow??

I'm going to work in the morning but should get to the beach by 1pm and it looks as though there could be a nice SW blowing by then (fingers crossed).

Anyone else up for it??

some of us work full time Al...u have to work hard to play hard

but will be down for the weekend if it warms up a bit..how is it there now?

Hehe... Luckily I have the technique of getting by on next to no money down to a fine art so that I can work less and play more!!

Although saying that I probably put in more work hours than most, I do benefit from not having to spend any time travelling to the beach though.

Things are looking OK here, wind has swung to SW and is gusting to 20 knots at the moment. It's pretty warm out there, but there has been no sign of the sun today.

Pretty warm, it is absolutely freezing!! Still not acclimatised to the UK yet. Ive not been this cold since New Zealand last year!! I was thinking about a windsurfing session myself sometime as im currently unemployed but I might leave it a few weeks to warm up a bit.

Not quite enough wind at the moment with it hovering around that frustrating 15 knot mark... lets hope it kicks in before it gets dark.

15 knots?? how about a kitesurf or sesh on the mountain board? is it raining? if not i might come out for a bit...

Pop in and twist my arm if you come out this way.
