After a busy day and a lovely windsurf session, it was time for a quick dinner and then back into Aberystwyth for another concert. We went to the Schools Concert in the Arts Centre last week as Morgan was playing in the schools Wind Band. Today it was the Wind Band Concert which included the Youth...
After my first windsurf session for absolutely ages on Monday, the conditions on Tuesday were even better. Much sunnier and a bit windier too with slightly larger waves as well. It would have been rude not to go out again but with a busy day planned and lots to do I only just managed to...
No, I’m not referring to any of Anna’s habits (we won’t go there), I’m talking meteorologically. It was plenty windy enough when I got home with gusts touching 40 knots so headed over to the beach with my little wave board and a 5m and 4.5m sail ready for what looked liked being a really good...
After a few days of sunshine, winter has returned. There was loads of snow on the hills yesterday and the beach was icy and it looks as though there has been another fresh fall of snow on the hills overnight too. Even the low hills behind Ynyslas have a covering so I’m sure there’ll be...

It’s another gorgeous morning out there on Ynyslas beach. Cold mind, but lovely all the same.
And we’re off – After Day 1 of our 2016 Scout Camp to PGL Boreaton Park, Day 2 started as usual with a huge breakfast and the usual trauma of making sure everyone had everything they needed for the days activities. Canoeing As the first of these activities was canoeing everyone had to be organised with clothes...
Before we could go on a Scout Camp to Boreaton Park I had to first do my MiDAS minibus driving test so that I could drive one of the Ystwyth Reach Out buses to get everyone there. This meant taking a day off work on Monday and a whole day driving around Ceredigion and completing...
It was another lovely day here on Wednesday. Perfectly sunny from the get go and very calm on my morning walk around the dunes at Ynyslas. Unfortunately a day at work was in order so there was no lazing in the sunshine for us. The temperature here reached 17.7ºC according to my Borth & Ynyslas...
