Freezing...???!!!

[old-mo]

Took the van out for a run and topped up to the brim with diesel....

Then down to Chesil Beach for a pic-nic....... Bloody freezing.....

Loads of nutters Kite Surfing, in rough water for Portland Harbour, which is usually sheltered and calm`ish...

They must have been freezing their dangly bits off... even in wet suits....

8 Deg + Wind chill factor felt like minus 8....

Wished I had put the van on a SORN and saved a few ££££`s...

Makes me wonder how when I was in my 20s I use to surf 12 months of the year and waterski from April until October
Rarely go in the water now unless it’s like bath water

Down to 2 \ 3 deg in Weegieland today. Glorious sunshine though.

Onyway, the fresh air will dae yi a power o guid!

Learn to crochet?

Crochet is the perfect Motorhome hobby - no mess - portable - inexpensive - and (once mastered) therapeutic. I am going to attempt to teach it from my hospital bed. Choose a 5 or 6mm crochet hook “Pony” in the blue & orange pack are widely available and a ball of double knit yarn. Make a slip...

Back in the day, i've surfed at Croyde in January with snow falling, it was so cold i could only manage around 45 minutes at a time before having to get out and warm up but at the end of the day after a hot shower, a t-bone steak in the thatch and a couple of beers you got the best sleep ever, happy days

I learnt to windsurf and used to sail in Portland Harbour all year round-the sea never gets that cold and a decent winter wetsuit will keep you warm in the UK. In 1990 I moved to Cambridgeshire and windsurfed at Grafham Water-I can tell you that in March the water is as cold as it’s going to get-and that is dam cold-I have seen the lake frozen from bank to bank-if it was windy though………..
