Well, after umming and aaahing about the forecast i phoned funsport after my 10am lecture and asked what it was like. Lucas said people where out on 5.3m so i jumped on my bike (yes actually on my bike.) Pedalled over there as quick as i could. Rigged up and was on the water by 12:30 ish. Struggled at first due to my own incompetence and drifted into s**t corner. Then started getting crapm because of the ride over. Decided to man up and once i had my head straight i sailed back upwind. Was waterstarting happily so am making progress. Made some runs out and back a few times trying to get some air usually ending up in waterstart practice. Was absoloutly shattered by 4 so came back in and was very kindly offered a lift  back to bangor by Ed. It was easing off a bit around the time i came back in. Then once i had packed up it picked up again.

I was on a 5.3 N.P. Combat and a Starboard 105 Kombat.

Maybe see some people there on wednesday if the forecast gets slightly better.
