Thats my plan...
The necessary phonecalls have been made, the snowboard has come out of the shed, bindings have been checked and I've found my boots....
I just hope theres enough snow in the hills.

Just got back from a good snow-boarding session on a hil above Bow St. There was about 6 inches of snow when I left and it is still
snowing heavily!!...
My legs are going to ache tomorrow though afetr walking up that hill so many times. There wasn't any wind so there was no chance to try
snow-kiting, but if it fills in later I might have a go on the golf course!!

Yep, it looks good out there!
I have just had a long discussion with the rest of the bumpkins about what "pitching" means - it would appear I am the only person
around here who has never heard it!

Aha... At last, someone else who understand the word pitching!!!
Everyone else seems to talk about it sticking!!
But, being Bristolian, it 'pitches' for me too.!!

Woohoo... Here we go again.
The sun came out for a while this afternoon, but all of a sudden its blizzard conditions out there now. The wind has picked up to a
good 15-20 knots and its snowing heavily...

No snow as yet near Bromsgrove! But thanks Justal, was comin down to the coast Friday aft- with my boards, now I know i've got to take
my snow chains for the motor & Ice breaker for the front of my board, Hope its windy enough, It need 15mph of wind to work best!

Theres about 6 inches now I'd say, although it is deeper in places.
Not sure where we'll go snow-kiting yet, we'll just look around until we find somewhere big enough and flat enough.. Maybe just a
football field, or maybe try kiting up the hills.
Not sure how much snow will be around tomorrow, but I can still always go out on the sea if the snow disappears as it looks as though
there should be some wind... Mind you, I suppose I should do some work if the roads are clear!!!
