I went today and after about 20 mins a nice 18kt cross shore seabreeze turned 90 deg off shore, dropped about 5kts and went really fluky. Someone must be telling me something...

Got a Christmas eve session in but wouldn't be brave enough to chance me luck for Christmas Day, vans ok for a night or two but wouldn't fancy living in it!

Perfect Christmas Day for me. Escaped a 40 deg day in Bunbury for 25 deg C to be with family in Albany. A big long lunch, then a late sesh at the Lilacs speed run ... with my wife's blessing

I wish I could. I live in British Columbia, Canada. It's minus 6 degrees and puking snow. Good ski day, although I'd rather be windsurfing. Merry Christmas mates!


We had 7 people out here in Victoria just yesterday. Probably get even more tomorrow!

If you have family around, or visiting, I believe it is selfish. There are plenty of other days to go. If you're alone, then by all means, what are ya waiting for, get on out their!!! Merry Christmas!!!

Is Enlightenment Celebration Day a relative of OCD?

Appears to be a close genetic match!


No no, instead of celebrating strange fairy tales regarding gods incarnating, put on a cross, resurrected and then propelled up in the sky without any help from NASA or Elon Musk ... we toast to reason.

But unfortunately (or fortunately to avoid another drought year) it has been raining almost no stop for quite a few days. So no windsurfing ... (although it could be entertained).

I didn't go and I'm still pissed about it.
