Had a fairly late night, doing very little & achieving even less. Got involved in a discussion with a guy called Colin about a show on Channel 4 which looked at surgical correction of 'embarrassing' body parts. One was a woman who had shark-like pins for teeth > looked alien, and nasty, she was given porcelain veneers; the others included an incontinent man, who ended up being fitted up with a mechanical bladder with the 'ON' switch in his scrotum... but you'll have to imaging the rest! Was it smut - or medical interest? Dunno!
Was scratched also by a Weevil* right across the hand - that's gone all red now, think I've been infected & may mutate at some point into something horriffic, but maybe no one will notice any difference!
Amazingly, looking out of the window, no sign of the rain, blizzards, storm force winds, hell & dalmations we were promised today, just a blue sky & calmness. I've decided to fire up the Skoda and head for Swansea. If I don't do anything, it'll be daytime TV, my couch, the laptop & about 15 liters of instant coffee - neither good nor inspiring!
Always a good place to be, with miles of flat, golden sands & steep hills with fantastic vantage points. It's always been my favorite place to surf, so may even be tempted to have a go, in a half-hearted, non serious kind of way, but could just end up spectating. There's normally a lot to see! The one problem with Rhossili is that to get from your car to the bay is about half a mile down a steep slope, and it's a long way to carry your board, and there are brambles!
Still, when you get there - the bay is beautiful, the waves are safe & there's nothing nasty, like rips or sewage! There is the danger of being landed on by a passing hang-glider or microlight, as they get here too - and can be fun to watch!
Then it'll be an early tea at the Worm's Head Inn & a gradual return to Cardiff, stopping in a few places on the way. Day planned > time to move! I'll upload any interesting pix as I find them!
