Pretty miserable down there today as we cut up the wrecked punt. surprising how quickly the weather closed in ,one minute you could see the Severn crossing next minute blanked out with driving rain, cold too.

You will have too! The 1 toilet is for the ladies, and believe me when they start on the pop they go and go and go.The sani squad who emptied the Porta Potties in `96 could hardly keep up with them. [image][/image]

How are they selected into the ranks of sani squad ?

Is it after a strenuous selection course designed to weed out those not worthy of wearing the elite winged porta potti badge?

Easy! they had to prove themselves worthy of the task by running up and down the stairs at home with buckets of water, if the wife said they hadnt spilled any then they could apply to join the "Sani Squad"

Maybe a good idea that it was postponed, drizzle and quite windy here this morning.

Met office are now giving 37mph gusts for Sunday afternoon.

Thats enough to keep us in the Bay.

Were peed off.Almost every weekend I have been not working has been stuffed by the weather this year.

Sorry to say this Graham, but do you really take any notice of these garbage wind forecasts from the Met Office (and BBC)? Average wind 17 knots with gusts to F8!! I don't think so. It's one reason I use services such as WindGuru that show a much more believable F4-5 with gusts F5-6 for Cardiff Bay area for Sunday...see who's right and let us know. I'll eat my wooly Musto hat if CBYC weather station shows F8 tomorrow

PS - Here's the Inshore Waters forecast "Southwest 4 or 5, occasionally 6 around St Davids Head, veering west later"
