  1. Visiting this forum for the first time in a few years and spotted this post. EKS is long gone, but Kempsey Kite Club never closed and continues to flourish. Anyone reading this and wanting to come along will be welcome. Contact via the facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1501594096826400/?ref=bookmarks ARR
  2. Another video on this subject
  3. Add me to the list please
  4. If you've got an Android phone try TideApp, its free.
  5. Used them no problems with being secure. Only problem is they are directly onto the roof of the car, if you get any sand on them they tend to scratch the paintwork. They are only suitable for 4 door cars, it is not possible to get enough spacing on a 2 door. alan
  6. Congratulations Rhys and family. I'm sure you'll be allowed out to play if you do your share of the extra work. Alan
  7. Can you do a credit deal on this? i think 1%APR would be a fair interest rate
  8. I'm in, sounds a good bet
  9. An alternative to the pillow slip is the bag that comes with machine washable suits from places like Matalan. A lot larger, and made out of mesh that lets sand etc escape. Washed a white 5M Pansh Ace like this after after a muddy day on Cleeve Alan
  10. IP Code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  11. Thanks, I thought I'd seen the last of it. I think I owe you a couple of pints. Alan
  12. Went up today on the off chance of some wind. Had a not very good session, then when I got home I found I had dropped my GPS while I was out. I know its a slim chance but if anyone finds a Garmin Etrex Legend on the common it would be great to get it back. Thanks Alan
  13. If you want to combine live blues with some kiting try the Upton Blues festival in July. Its about 3 miles from EKS. Kiting in the day, free live music and drinks in the evening. (or music and drinks all day if there's no wind) .: Upton Blues Festival 2010 :. eXtreme Kite Shop
  14. Exit at junction 10 is only possible travelling south, and its a long way up to J9 and back. If travelling south on M5 I think the best way is exit at J9 and go via Bishops Cleeve. Remember the only way up is Harp Hill/Aggs Hill, so don't head towards the pylons when you see them just south of bishops Cleeve
  15. I thought it must have failed yesterday, so went up anyway thinking if there was no wind I could get my excercise by walking. There was no wind and thick fog with about 20M visibility.

    tooth ache

    Doesn't help the pain, but it might make you smile:) xkcd: Dental Nerve
  17. It has changed, showing to wind until sunday afternoon now:mad:
  18. http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/weather_radar.png Looks familiar:confused:
  19. Great to be out again, 8 weeks is a long time. I'm aching all over after quite a short session. I think I need some anesthetic tonight (liquid variety) Alan

    Try contacting Google, they may have a copy of all your passwords from when the Sreetview car went past:D:mad:
  21. Bought a McCulloch mulching mower a few years ago, best mower I've ever had. The cuttings just disappear, unless I let the grass get too long. Has the option to fit a grass collection bag, so if you want the extra work you can collect the cuttings.
  22. Try this EasyTide - on-line tidal predictions from the UKHO Alan
  23. If I read correctly the site is GMT, so the data is up to date as we are currently on BST. Alan
  24. EKS at Kempsey is always good, http://forum.kitecrowd.com/west-midlands/eks-kite-club-extremekiteshop-thread-1-a-170518.html Or a little south of Worcester is Cleeve Common http://forum.kitecrowd.com/south-west-england/cleeve-common-6th-edition-179347.html
