Birthday on the Beach
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...
Surf-Ski on the Bar with Steve and Sam
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...
Remember, it’s only February
I think that is probably the first time that I’ve ever mowed the lawn in February. The mild temperatures we’ve been having lately – it reached 17.8ºC on Friday – make it feel as though it’s much later in the year than that already. The garden seems to think so as well. It was in...
Photos from the Beach
We haven’t been up to a huge amount lately so there’s been little to blog about. There are however always photos from the beach. The beach after all has a new story of its own every day, so here are a few from today. And here are a couple for the Welsh rugby fans too...

Sheep vs Bees
After my post about the weekend and all the things that had gone wrong, I thought I’d better balance it out with some other things today. First an update on the sheep invasion. The measures I put in place to keep them out didn’t last long. They were soon back destroying everything and have now...
Morgan’s Ski Trip
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...
Man vs Sheep
I’ve just had ‘one of those’ weekends. Storm Damage First, the felt blew off the shed during Friday’s storm. That meant that a journey into town was required to get some felt, some bitumen adhesive and some felt tacks. I did manage an hour on the turbo trainer followed by a quick run but I...
Snowy Scene
Just a quick snowy scene from the weekend – with a nice wintry filter too.
