Well it's lookin good for the comming w/end at the moment, although you can never tell at this stage in the game.
I'll make some arrangements to do something else... Thats bound to guaranty a solid 20k all w/end.
Yes, it's usually my working w/end or when I organise activities with the non kiteing fraternity that it howls like a goodun all
w/end.
So... anyone about? it's been a while... well, at least 2 wks
Shem, av you still got that Instinct? wouldn't mind a swift look at it
will be up late friday afternoon after work.
I'll be up if forecast is decent. Hoping there's some bow kites to test if Col and Shem are about. I need to replace my broken 10m.
I'll be on the beach if the wind cooperates.. It looks OK at the moment.
Al.
i'm coming up this weekend for deff dudes, see ya'll on the beach
"i'm coming up this weekend for deff dudes"

Im game for a play, as usual. Got my self a new sonic to crack open. the instincts gone back, but Ive got a demo 13 ordered, got a shockwave 12 meter demo as well. If winds good Ill set um all up. Be good if COL could bring a ION over, Im keen for a try. COl where are yoooouuuuuu!!!!!
Typical! I've arranged not to come this weekend and everyone and their bows going to be there, oh and there's a hint of some wind
too.
If it looks good may come up on Friday but got to go back Saturday.
Jon ain't seen you for ages, hope to catch up soon
Done me exercises Neil, ta for that. Now I must practice my new mantra 'must not drink too much scrumpy jack at weekends, it is not
good for me'
i'm on weekend working at the mo but if sunday holds i'll be up saturday night after work for an early sunday session, but got to go by
2 ish
should have some new toys too
I hope to be in Dyfi with a few of the Worcestershire boys.
Be good to see ya COL, its been a while.
Ill warn the local pie shops to stock up, hehe!!

I can't make Saturday, so you are bound to get great wind.
Will come over on Sunday though if the wind holds on.
[Edited on 15-5-2006 by Fat Shady]
So are you all off to borth or are ya coming to Aberdyfi?
will sail across to say hello Shem
Will be over with FB. Hopefully be over friday morning.
Bugger shem i was hoping to blag a go on your instinct oh well never mind.
Ive aranged to go fishing this weekend so its sure to be very windy probaly wet too!
well lads you asked for wind, an i think we got it, mmmmmm,
the question is how many of us have got small enough kites,
I'm busy all weekend so you can thank me as well as BEFS for the sacrifice to the wind Gods.
Might have to take a day off either Friday or Monday though....
whooooo its looking good, be up friday night. if the wind direction stays southerly, i will park in da estuary and walk over the dunes,
for a play in them pools !!!!!!!!!! its exciting stuff this wind, looks like it will be mr 8m out of the bag. see ya on da beach.

Lets just hope its as good as it looks, Im only gonna teach a half day, so its most of the weekend for fun!!!!!!! SSSSSSSSSWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEETTTTTT!!!!!
It isn't atually looking that good for the weekend is it?? Thursday looks like the day, with a little left over for Friday morning, but
not a lot for the weekend.... Of course all that could (and probably will) change.
Al.
what the hell happened to the forecast, its because i booked friday afternoon off.
Thats because you need 25 knots to have fun Al, Us jolly kite surfing types are fairly happy with 12 knots and big kites!! Join us Al, crack out that 15 m GK curl I gave ya.
Maybe your right Al, windguru seems to be updating every 10 minuits, one minuite its uo the next its down!!! Huge variants, probably
best to just wake up and look, all the same Ive booked Thursday off, yum yum!!

The forecasts I've been looking at haven't ever looked that good for the weekend, Thursday has alays been the best day. Thursday still
looks OK at the moment just not quite as good as it has been looking. I'm still quite hopeful though.
As far as the weekend goes, there will probably still be enough around for kiting, there aren't many days of the year when the wind
doesn't get to 12 knots for at least an hour or so!
I'm also looking towards Monday for some decent surf at the moment... Anyone got any thought on that??
Al.
Al where do you look at you're forecasts, windguru an XC were forcasting 25-29mph up until last night?
Oh and yeah now you can all blame the worcestershire chaps for booking time off work to come and join the fun.
Personally im just blaming mark (FB) though
All sorts of places, including Windguru, Theyr and Metcheck as my favourites and then lots of isobar charts, WAM charts etc etc.
Whenever I looked at Windguru this week it wasn't showing much for the weekend.. usually around Force 4. But it's only showing Force
3-4 now.
Unless of course you are one of the lucky few whose weekend begins on Thursday!!
Al.

Be up friday night, but prob. late as i,m sein me daughter so will either see you,s in the pub or the carpark. Going Dyfi side, just
spoke to Woosh and Tony and they will be Dyfi side too.
Shame you havn't still got that Instinct Shem as they look like a very interesting prospect. wouldn't mind hearin the lowdown on the
build quality an your unbiast oppinion of the performance if youve time to chew the fat.
Bin watchin the wind all week an it's been a rollercoaster. Still looks like we'll be avin a sail but hey, if d wind dont show, I'd
sooner be there than ere... what says d massif.
