Am down in Cornwall Staying at a perfect spot in Widemouth, near Bude, Our Beach Break.  Plan is i’m working for waves (again) and a roof over my  head, so watch out for a new website arriving soon at the link above. The good news the waters lovely, cold, but lovely. I’m a cold water convert. Had [...]

I know, i know, it’s been a while. Two and a half weeks have passed and all there is to show is one lousy video of a grasshopper. This lack of documentation might suggest not a great deal has happened over the last few weeks or perhaps that i have been busy both working and [...]

Anyone passing by the south coast of Sri Lanka would be a fool to pass this little gem by. Run by a total star, mr Ratner. Great food, i could be stranded there for months and it would still be a delight to see fish curry rice turning up at the table, or maybe prawn [...]

By this time of year the wind has pretty much settled into a distinct pattern which is very slight and off the land from dawn until 10am creating perfect conditions. From 10 until 4 the wind picks up and moves onshore until swinging and dropping again for the afternoon glass off. This pattern pretty much orders the [...]

One week one day to go!
