Huge Skies
Huge Skies and some big waves at Ynyslas today. Not a bad sunset either! Shame I’m suffering with some sort of man-flu lurgy otherwise I would have been out there playing in the sea.

Hall Lighting
As mentioned in my previous post about LED Hall Lighting, my idea to put some LED lights up in the hall for Christmas ended up escalating somewhat. The hall was redecorated, woodwork sanded and varnished, walls and ceilings painted, a new picture rail was installed and 20m of LED lighting was ordered. Not only that...
Welsh Cyclocross 2018 – Round 10 Pembrey Final
After a few weeks off it was time for the final round of this years Cyclocross Series. With the best 5 results from the series to count there was still the possibility for some improvement for me as I’d had a few finishes around 20th position earlier in the season. Since the middle of the season my...
Festival of Light, Longleat
This year our family gathering and Christmas get together was at the Festival of Light at Longleat. Grab a coffee as this could be a long post as we had a packed day at Longleat. Morgan had been ill the day before and we all had a bit of lurgy so Friday evening was spent...
A Birthday Crack
With the winds having finally dropped enough for us to put our giant inflatable elf out on Monday evening, it would have been remiss of me not to get out for a paddle on the sea on Tuesday – especially as it was my birthday. So, that’s exactly what I did with a nice little...
A Wet Windy Weekend in Wales
Another wet and very windy weekend here in West Wales. We don’t let that stop us though. A good Spring clean (even though its Winter) early on Saturday morning without waking Anna and Morgan meant that the house was ready for the Christmas decorations to go up. It’s surprising what you find under the sofa though!...
LED Hall Lighting
Last year we had a few fairy lights around some of the door frames in the hall. At the time I said it would be nice to have LED’s around all of them for the festive season, so with Christmas approaching I decided to look into it. We’ve had strips of remote controlled RGB LEDs for...
More Waves
And the waves keep coming. Nice clean foot swell today and barely any wind. So, after an amazing sunrise it was off to the beach with my Surf Ski for some fun in the water.
A Tuesday Morning Sunrise
It’s not looking too bad out there for a Tuesday morning in December. It’s 8am, the Borth & Ynyslas Weather Station is reading 1ºC and there’s lovely sunrise. There’s a decent surf rolling into the beach and it’s all overlooked by a thin crescent moon and the bright light of Venus. Lovely!
No Exercise for a Week
That has to be a record for me, no exercise for a whole week! OK, it probably isn’t a record as I’ve been injured or ill in the past and haven’t been able to exercise and I guess this was the same. I had a bit of a sore back last Saturday and it was worse after...
