I might well see one or two of you on New Years Day because if I'm not coming out then I'll be attending the GAFIRS charity swim at Stokes Bay.

See HERE

We have been out on New Years day fot the last 3. Very weird as you usually have the whole coast to yourself.

Last year it was minus 5 when we started out, but the sea was like glass. Great fun as long as you wear the right gear.

Put me down

Would love to but sadly will still be recovering from ... no not a hangover .... but a hospital trip - which has just been put back so not out until the 24th December

Hope it goes really well for you all - if by some miracle I'm on my feet by then we may try and pop down to what ever pub you all end up in

Weather's great here, hope it's the same for you guys & you have a fab time. Would love to go and play but the trailers still not up to it... and to be fair I've only just got up anyway. Happy new year all!
