Wello yesterday was like caressing the bosom of Scarlet Johanson whilst dressed as an ice hockey goallie. Don't get me wrong, it was great, but could've been SO much better.

Wello went off.

Due to the temperature of the water, the kite I had, the one beer I drank , the copious amount of sun I received and the sunburnt face to go with it ; I totally forget the name of the guy who I talked to today!

Sorry... You're a windsurfer. You know who you are! Trow me a PM/ reply on here. Then I can put a name to your face for certain!

Appears we caught all the good wind yesterday!

I seem to still have a 'glow' about my face! Great example to my kids to always wear sunscreen LOL

Yeah. I will be the first to admit it was definately my fault but it makes it difficult with someone in the middle of where you're kiting/ windsurfing. I know you guys would find us more annoying than we find you lol! >That's intended to be taken light-heartedly<

I couldn't see Glynn around after and wasn't sure if he came in; wanting to give him a bit more of a reassurance and apology off the water. If he reads these forums, can he throw me a pm please!:?

I met another Windy and Kiter yesterday, BOTH of which I forgot their SB username/ name...
Both good lookers lol Sorry fellas. You know who you are now lol

Sorry... You're a kitesurfer .

Haha, no, it was me. Good to meet you in person. Someone will have to set you up on a beginner board one day eh? Or there's another technique called "here's a shortboard. go for it."

And yes I will have a go on a kite, see what all the fuss is about. It's always like that isn't it:
"I windsurf".
"I kitesurf. Have you tried it, oh you have to."

Now I know who Vando is too, although I'm only gonna recognise you from your sail and the pck-pck-pckpck as you fly past me.

But my god it was cold!!! And I spent far more time than usual in the water. The colder I got the more I fell in and so on. How long until frost bite kicks in as I had no sensation in my fingers or toes for at least an hour. It's all a bit detached when you can't feel the board, water or boom. I'm not for it. When I got out I was talking to someone in the water for a bit and I even was slurring my speech.

I saw a turtle. That was good.

So does Wello get the most wind in a westerly. This year the north end of the bay has got next to nothing. Or is this just dumb luck

geez boys after watching the bull shark show, the murky waters of the broadwater is certainly less appealing!
