Wind is starting to drift a bit sw'rly but Anglesey seems to look like it will hold on to a bit still by the weekend.
Anyone any plans for a trip ?

Friday looking well good - 20 knots and some sunshine! So I'm having a well-earned day on the beach  
Jon d Hat is up for it too so Al won't have the beach to himself
Sat looking pretty good too, and sunday, well looks like a mt biking opportunity to me
Roll on the weekend

Have spoke to Tony and he is going to try to get over friday afternoon.
I cant get away from work before end of day, so will get to Borth about 10.30ish.
I presume someone has the new gate key ?
Is anyone offering a bed to kitefish or will he be making a day trip only ?

Hey Mark,
I'm spoken for, but I hear Tony's available at the moment - I'm sure he'll extend Kitefish a WARM welcome

Now now boys no fighting over me Never felt so popular
I have a key to the gate but no van, bit of a waste of £50
Hopefully if the wind stays in for Saturday I will see you then.

Have to try Rhossi one day. Borth too but it's a little far when I've already come past it on a Friday evening traveling from way too
far south for my own good.
BRS for me I think. Big tides are due so lagoon fun fun fun

Hey Col,
You will have to make the trip down to Borth some time soon.
It cant be more than an hour from your Dads place and worth the drive I am sure.

I'll give it some thought Mark. Probably closer to an hour and half travel to be honest. I''ll have to work my way round the estuary.
From memory Dyfi was a good 45 minutes on a good run.
Always good to spread the wings though.

Don't stress about it Col - just bring them all - thats what a van is for after all! I'm sure there'll be plenty of hands about to help
you unwrap em

don't know how you can comment on my kites big boy - last time you were out several people commented that you must have gills - the
length of time you spent under water

Well, think i'll head to Borth first next time. No one at Dovey first thing so after waiting around a bit, headed up to BRS, shit
journey which took nearly an hour. No bugger there either, so cut my losses and headed back to Brum.
Got caught in loads of traffic, took me nearly 4 hours to get home......what an absolute waste of a day !!!. Was so looking forward to
it as well.
Hope people had a better day out than me.....the conditions looked great, but I don't kite on my own.
Still, i guess there will be another good day soon.
Cheers,
Si.

12 or 15 out at Borth - what a fantastic day! Lighter winds than Friday which was epic too, mild weather for January, 15-18 knots, and
the sun shone all day
