All of a sudden the forecasts for the weekend are starting to improve... NW (my favourite direction at Borth) and Force 5-6 for Borth on Saturday at the moment... Of course, they'll only be teasing us and that will be downgraded throughout the week.

If it does arrive then I hope it arrives early as I have to go to a wedding in the afternoon. It feels as though its been ages coming.

Earlier this week they were offering f4-5 for this weekend - the first weekend I have actually got some spare time.

But what a susprise it is now predicted to be f2.

It's sooo annoying, guess what - forecasted force 4-5 for the coming Tuesday aswell - NOT A CHANCE!

Yep... It ain't lookin' good any more!!

Olly... If the wind does come along on Tuesday are you up for a sail at Borth?? High tides around 9am. The forecast at the mo (which is bound to change) is W Force 4-5 so it could be good on the sea-front. Don't worry about the waves..Although they can get nasty in a Westerly, because its dead onshore you can just blast up and down close to the shore without having to contend with the bigger waves further out.

Keep an eye on the forecast.

May very well be able to pop over for a sail.

Over the next few weeks I have got to work if I get the oppotunity. I have set myself the task of paying off a credit card and buying a kite. Therefore my playing may be restricted to the weekends for the next month or so, but...

....if I don't get any work I suppose I will just have to play instead!

What sort of work are you after???


The forecast is still looking good for Tues / Weds.. SW Force 6 on Tuesday, NW Force 5-6 on Weds.

I should be able to get myself free by around 3pm on Tuesday for a sail. I'm not sure about Weds yet, but could definately manage an quick early morning session... Lets see what the forecast says closer to the time and arrange something then.

Al.

P.S. Just looked at the isobar charts for the middle of next week and they don't look so promising!
