Wednesday Skive
« on: September 08, 2009 »

For anyone not having to work or who are "sick",  I will be out for a wee surf paddle tomorrow morning from 9am!  Will either be whiterocks, east or west strand Portrush depending if the surf is behaving itself.


:)  Great for waking you up!!

I have been round it in the safety of the jeep looking up at little dots up there which i assumed to be people.  Not my cuppa, i think you are mental to be honest.  :)


Did the wind stay down??

yeah the weather wa amazing! I actually felt the warmth of the sun on my face, I'd forgotten what that was like! It is an awe inspiring place, the views were epic combined with the height of the cliffs and the sound of the waves crashing, blows your mind to be honest!
