Insane Insurance

Whilst on my way to a cyclo-cross race recently someone accidentally hit my car. It was all at slow speed so don’t panic, everyone was fine! I was just heading up the hill out of Borth. The other driver was pulling out of a blind alley to the left which has waist high walls to either...

SUP Surf Session with Cetaceans

What could be better than a mellow little post-work SUP surf session? How about a SUP surf session with cetaceans. A couple of adult dolphins to keep me company. Nice!
