    Nice one. They held a reasonably big competition last year too but there wasn't enough wind, hopefully they get the wind for this one!

    I'm heading west tomorrow until Monday. With a bit of luck, the wind will be up.

    Its a pretty rare occurence to have the wind coming from there too. At least it's getting stronger tomorrow and friday. Looking calm again for Saturday but should be very windy on sunday for the last day. That's going by the forecast at the moment which is liable to change of course.
