Sunrise in Wales
Just a pretty photo of this morning’s sunrise – no filters applied, this was straight out of the camera. Impressive colours and note that our lawn is neat and tidy already thanks to the robot mowers!

New Board Day
I know it seems like I’m always buying new toys, but I’m not really! Take my surfboards for instance. The last time I bought a new surfboard was last century. I can’t even remember exactly when because ‘blogging’ hadn’t been invented then so there’s no record of it on this weblog! It must have been...

Surf Ski at Ynyslas
The surf has been pretty good here these last few days. I need a new surfboard though – a surfboard suitable for a middle-aged man rather than the teenager boards that I’ve currently got. Don’t worry, one will be winging its way towards me soon. In the meantime I didn’t miss out too much as...
ChatGPT – Am I Redundant?
I’ve been experimenting with ChatGPT. If you haven’t heard about it then it’s a text-based Artificial Intelligence (AI) and it’s surprisingly clever! You can ask it questions, ask it to generate text for you and even ask it to write blog posts and essays (which is proving a bit of an issue for those in...
Action Cams for Windsurfing. GoPro vs Insta 360
Capturing the thrill and excitement of windsurfing can be challenging, but with the rise of action cameras, it has become easier than ever to record your sessions on the water. I’ve had a GoPro for many years. I got my first one back in 2010 when they released the first HD version of the camera....
Doing it in the Buff
I think you’ll agree with me that it’s better in the buff? So, with that in mind this article is all about doing it in the buff! What’s more, just for your entertainment you I shall illustrate it with plenty of photos of me (a grey, slightly overweight, middle-aged man) in the buff as well....
Aber Kayakers – Carry on up the Dyfi
Apparently there wasn’t any water in the rivers at the weekend. So, rather than cancel the planned whitewater development day with Aber kayakers I suggested a trip up the Dyfi Estuary instead. The weather was after all forecast to be glorious and the tides were perfect. Sunny Skies Sunday did indeed dawn still and sunny....
Happy 18th Birthday
I’m not quite sure how we did it, but it would appear as though Anna and I have managed to raise a fully grown adult!! Yep, Morgan turned 18 at the weekend. We had a family meal with just the three of us to celebrate at the Glen in Aberystwyth. We’re not 100% sure what...
Cors Caron and The Hungry Ram
I think I forgot to say here but Anna and I had a nice evening out at The Hungry Ram in Penwch last week. It’s quite a drive for a quick meal from here so we stopped off at Cors Caron for a little walk around the boardwalks first. It wasn’t the nicest of days...
