  1. I stayed there a few years ago, didn't stay in the little tents but the ones around the corner on the hill (you normally see a picture of them when they show you camp) they're not too bad, as said, they have a hard floor, bed with frame and a matress.......pretty basic but after a good days kiting you won't worry. Definatley worth the trip........at least once. :-)
  2. Has anyone been over to the Bidfield recently to have a look what condition the field is in? Is it boardable yet? Schmool
  3. Burger, I see you have your 13m G1 for sale. What kites do you have for higher winds these days. I know my 15m G2 get's a bit of an animal when the wind picks up. Schmool
  4. Burger, Now you've got the arc's there's no way back now....all we need to do is get you on the water!! Schmool
  5. Looking at going to Colona @ Sharm in the next few weeks. Anyone elso going out there? Schmool
  6. Sweet....if I had the money I'd buy a Rod anyday! Schmool
  7. All, Just looking at going to Babados (with Waveriders) in a couple of weeks, anyone else booked to go out there? Cheers Schmool
  8. Just a quick note to say how much i enjoyed my stay there, and it was nice to meet some nice and friendly kitesurfers. Schmool
  9. Egypt next week .............I think I'll be out first and in last!! Schmool
  10. Anyone been down the Bidfield recently or is it still a 'little' damp? I havn't been out for ages, not since I knackered my leg, I'm starting to get anxious to go out flying! I'm going to leave it for another few weeks, until I'm back in Egypt! Schmool
  11. Keyboards, electric & acoustic guitar, didgeridoo (genuine one, not a touristy one) Schmool
  12. Did someone mention Kitesurfing?? I'm in on that! Schmool
  13. I think you're right Burger.....I'll take it easy for the next 6-8wks...then I'll be fully recovered for my next trip to Egypt!!! Schmool
  14. Went out to Borth last Saturday, happily cruising up and down on my board when I happened to hit some nice soft sand, as usual I was overpowered and got projected off my board at speed! Returning back Saturday night my leg was in pain...I mean PAIN, and had swollen to twice the size of my other leg. I got up Sunday and my leg was starting to go blue, at that I decided to go to A&E. 5 hours later the Doc confirmed that I'd most likely ripped the Calf muscle. Oh well, at least I didn't bust anything, but I won't be able to go boarding for a bit!! Schmool
  15. Interesting bit of info on Adders, might be worth reading so you know what to do if bitten. http://www.arkive.org/species/ARK/reptiles/Vipera_berus Schmool
  16. I can vouch for the presence of snakes.......I think the snake was narked off 'cause someone was peeing in his back yard so to speak!! Schmool
  17. Don't know about anyone else, but I'm getting really narked off not being able to fly. The weather seems to be no wind, or peeing down and wind! Hope this pants weather ends soon. Schmool
  18. I take it that it was Dinky....or was it Matchbox? There was no need for the tears though!!
  19. I have been run over and can honestly say that kiting doesn't hurt as much....it may seem like it, but trust me, it's a long way off! Schmool
  20. Whey hey....Back from Ras.....What an awsome time I had.......finally got the jumps sorted out....It hurts less when you mess it up on water! I'm already planning the return trip in September....any one fancy it? ......Don't tell me...'I havn't got any money', 'I havn't enough holiday', 'The missus won't let me', yeh, yeh, yeh! Hopefully I'll get down to Bidfield when the weathers OK....havn't flown there for Aaaaagggggeeeeessssss!! Schmool
  21. I agree with that...I use ProE Wildfire 3.0 with ISDX.......awesome fun....if you like that kinda thing!! Won't help with the original thread though... :D Schmool
  22. Bro, AutoCAD......I saw that in a museum once! Unfortunately I can't help you here, it's been way to long since I've used AutoCAD. What are you trying to do exactly? I ask this as I have full CAD facilities at home and may be able to help - I'm a Mechanical Design Engineer by profession!! Cheers Schmool
  23. Sent you PM Schmool
  24. I thought the bloke would be happy to still have a life, he could buy another pile of kit to replace the stuff lost, broken or damaged. The one thing he cannot replace is the habbit of breathing......what a miserable git! The RNLI are there to save LIVES not inanimate objects! Schmool
  25. Lucky sod!!! Wallops the closest thing to a kiting outing for me, looking forward to that though. Been over to the Bidfield lately Schmool? went over last night, wind was a bit pants, but had it's moments where it picked up a little so I could get a few little jumps in:D. I think we might go over on Thurs after work, if you fancy joining us. Blimey, what time do you lot finish work? By the time I get home and down to the Bidfield it's gone 7pm! Schmool
