Looks as though Ivor should be blowing first thing in the morning.

Al.

He sure did make an appearance... 37 knots max gust early this morning!

Al.

If only he'd come when it is high tide and daylight!

Is Ivor likely to show up early in the morning this week when it is high tide? I'm still not sure when to expect him.

Not on Tuesday, but possibly on Weds Thurs & Fri.... It all depends on how cold it gets in the hills overnight, it might be too warm there if it stays cloudy overnight but it looks fairly promising at the moment.

Al.

well thats going to bugger up any chance of teaching that might have looked promising. fingers x it pulls round for a seabreeze

Or.... the fact that I've said Ivor might put in an appearance will probably make him shy and he'll stay hiding in the hills just to prove me wrong!

Al.

or the fact i'm heading up thursday morning, so he wont blow then either...

anyway if he doesn't blow it's all Al's fault for starting this thread in the first place

Pretty much 20 knots at the mo.... Does that count? or is it still my fault?

Al.

30 knots now....

Al.

still your fault, as its to early, if its that windy till midday we wil let you off

Hopefully he'll come again tomorrow when high tide isn't quite so early and I stand more chance of getting there for it at 7am.

Alistair you take over Alan and Col now and be the one blamed if Ivor does not show tomorrow lol

Blaschito, are you heading down Thursday morning? Did you go this morning?

Hi Al,
I am in work (having a break at the minute). Got a big day here in work for ssessments hence I could not go. I will head down this evening at 7.30 and try my luck. if not I will go for a run on the beach and get some nice sweat on. I am planning to go tomorrow morning before work and be at Ynyslas at 4.30-5.00am as I will have to be in work at 8 unless I manage to post pone a client and may be staying there a bit longer.

Are you coming in the morning to have a little check?

Now I will be the one to be blamed

I'm thinking of having a look tomorrow morning but not quite as early as you!

---

justal - 23-7-2014 at 11:58

I'd join you in the morning at 4:30am if I could, but I'll be heading off to John O'Groats at about that time ready to cycle to Lands End.

I can't be blamed for anything, except raging headwinds all the way!!

Al.

alistair - 23-7-2014 at 13:08

So we can look forward to strong SW winds for the next week or two

---

alistair - 23-7-2014 at 14:16

I hope Jogle goes well. And when you are back you'll have to come windsurfing or Ivor might think you have deserted him

---

justal - 23-7-2014 at 16:56

Cheers.... And I will be out on the water when I get back.

NE winds and weather like today for the next couple of weeks would be ideal for me.

Al.

Hey Alistair good sesh.

alistair - 24-7-2014 at 15:31

Very good I've compressed it and uploaded it but now it needs admin approval. I've put it on flickr so hopefully you can see it there: https://www.flickr.com/photos/61713946@N03/sets/72157645484865728/

I've approved it for you.... Very nice! We've been sat overlooking Thurso East.

No surf, but salmon jumping in river mouth and otters playing by the rocks.

Alistair... Did you subscribe to the weather station as well? Not sure I can enable your subscription from here unless I get better internet access and the laptop out... Will see what I can do.

I've sorted your weather station subscription now Alistair... Managed to get decent internet access in the Stornoway Hostel.

Thanks for continuing to subscribe.

Many thanks for sorting it all out while Jogleing. I hadn't resubscribed but would have just been about to as I think it ran out when I was away at the weekend. So I'll need to sort out payment when you are back.

---

Blaschito - 28-7-2014 at 21:02

Hi Alistair, yes I did get out again early in the morning, however the wind was less strong then Thursday, good for kiting not much for windsurfing.

Picture is brilliant. I have made it my Facebook profile, hope you do not mind. I did state that the picture was taken by you
