Just a few photos from our birthday boy walk on the walk.
Amazing, I managed to get the 14 year old Morgan off his xBox and out onto the beach briefly, despite the fact that it was his birthday! The temperature hit 18.7ºC here today, crazy temperatures for February. I was at home with Morgan so after some work jumped on the Turbo Trainer for a tough...
The surf was forecast to be good this weekend so I’d put the call out to see if anyone fancied a surf ski session here on Sunday. Steve and Sam who I’d met last year in Fishguard were up for it and were heading up from Hereford. There weren’t any other takers though. Making Plans...

I doubt I’ll ever get Morgan to blog about his recent school ski trip to Serre Chevalier – it’s hard enough to get many details out of him face to face… That’s 14 year old boys for you. So here are a few photos instead. And here’s a quick video clip he took on his...
