Why is it so quiet here, where is everybody???

No wind, no waves and everybody shuts up.... Someone must have at least been doing some interesting DIY!!!

Ho Hum.....

Car crash followed by rushing pregnant wife to hospital, leaking washing machines that leave the house smelling like someone has died and a fairly terminal break down in the 'other car' have kept me busy.....DIY suddenly does not seem such a bad weekend event

Still it could have been worse....if it had been windy I would have been really miffed

Well, just after posting that message yesterday I wandered over to the beach only to find a nice 2-3 foot surf rolling in, so I got out on the water after all!!

Sean... Who Crashed the car?? How is Jane, I take it you are not a proud father quite yet??

Ooooh... Looks like the wind is picking up here at the moment. think I'll go and check on the surf too.

BTW, we've now made it to 400 diary entries and just over 2000 posts in the forums, so, although its been a litle quiet lately Joner, we're not doing too badly. Thanks to you all, and keep it lively!!

Bad week update for Al

Jane staopped at a junction and was hit by the car behind. Jane suffered some internal bleeding,but is generally OK after some Anti-D injections.

Three months (approx) to go until I become a father.....hope to get some good sailing in before then!

PS Windy here this afternoon, but the windsurf carrying car is still at the garage waiting to be fixed

Well, the weather man may have got it wrong again, but if you read my forecast in this thread http://www.forces-of-nature.co.uk/forum/viewthread.php?tid=584 I think you'll find I got it spot on!!! Hehe. And after yesterdays session, am I glad I did!!!

Sean... Hope you have a better week this week. Glad to hear Jane is OK, but its a shame your windsurf carrying car was at the doctors while the wind was blowing and the sun shining... It'll all come together for you soon!!

Although, it won't be long before the new arrival in your family is carve-gybing around you!!!
