Skerries Questionmarks

The tide was perfect for a paddle out to the Skerries at max ebb. Yvonne planned the trip yesterday but we were aware and both questioning if the weather (wind) would suit the plan. With the last few days of strong westerly and northwesterly winds, yesterday force 6 to 8, 'on paper' this trip today would be questionable to say the least.

We went to Cemlyn to look at the sea and discuss the options. The sea was very white and rough at the obvious locations of the various tidal races out there and around the Skerries. Furloughs race was unplayable in a way that we considered it unsafe. There looked to be 'pathways' towards the Skerries that would be 'possible', but why the risk? The wind was still a solid force 5/6 against max ebb. Questions...

Lots of alternative plans came to mind. In the end we decided to paddle against the flow towards Cameas Bay and have lunch there. After lunch the tide would have eased a bit and would probably change some perspective? Paddling back towards Cemlyn the wind had dropped to 4 and the sea had quietened down to a point where I asked Yvonne on the spot to take us to the Skerries.

At dead slack we arrived at the Skerries. A short break there and then surfing back to Cemlyn Bay via West Mouse.

Decisions: when question marks become exclamation marks.

However, what are you going to do if yyou live in a rural redgion and don't have
a fast internet connection or any connectin at all. Whether you are looking att the different options that you hae for phonne service or the different ways in whicxh you can connect to the internet, yoou will likely be amazed
at the many different options that are being affrorded to
you, even when some of them seem less than affordable.

Often, in thhe middle of nowhere, it can be difficult to get reliable Wi -
Fi service, so for adventurers it is better tto
turn to a mobile phone which can get the internet off of a satellite or have a tablet with the same capabilities.

The lack of proper management skills leads to poor validation techniques and saturation of the products ddue to excess
production. If you find the acronyms and jargon used in broadband
advertising confusing, and even if you don't; iit is well worth utilising a
comparison site too find tthe cheapest and most reliabe broadband package available in youhr
local area. For the normal end-user, these cloud-based services come
in the fom of Apple's i - Cloud and , being ccost effective and intuitive solutions even if
users are just using wireless Internet.

Hi, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was
just curious if you get a lot of spam feedback?
If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything
you can recommend? I get so much lately it's driving me
mad so any support is very much appreciated.

AstroPay ödeme yönteminin en büyükavantajı kullanıcıların kişisel bilgilerini, kredi
kartı bilgilerini vermek zorunda olmamasıdır. Bu şekilde alışverişler sadece büyük ssiteler gibi
sınırlandırmalardan kurtulup her türlü çevrimiçi sitede alışveriş imkânı ortaya çıkacaktır.
İnternetteki alışveriş piyasasının sürekli olarak çılgınca büyümesi kullanıcıların dolandırıcılık konusunda gözünü
korkutmuştur. Bu sebeple artık intfernet ortamında bir güvenli bölge ihtiyacı doğduğundan AstroPay
bu boşlukta kendine yeer edinmiş vee güvenli bölgeyi yaratmıştır.
