So, anyway. It’s nice and windy this afternoon, so I drive over to Trafford Watersports Centre with the intention of hiring a windsurf board and having a bit of a blast. Except that when I get there, the biggest sail they have is a 4.5m, and whilst the wind is nice and breezy, it’s not that strong. So, I disappear, come back two hours later – this time there’s plenty of sails. Hurrah! So, I get out on the water and the wind promptly drops, leaving me sat out in the middle of a lake, immobile. That said, I got some freestyle practice in, which is always useful.
