Election Day at the Blue Lagoon

Bank Holiday Activities

Annoying Wind
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...
Windsurfing – Back on Board
Those of you who knew me a few years ago won’t quite believe this, but it has been ages (literally months) since I’ve been windsurfing. So long in fact that I don’t want to look it up to see how long ago it was! This may not seem unusual to some people, but considering the...
