Has anyone started looking at the weather yet?  I know I shouldn't tempt fate but I did and wished I hadn't.

Fingers crossed for improvements

The weather seems to be swinging all over the damn place.

What a bloody pain that is.

 

Has anyone else been thinking of using Weymouth/Portland as an alternative if it stays Northerly?

 

I may struggle to make alternative dates for Alderney.

A pain indeed Charlie, just waiting and watching at present. If it's a no good I'll try and do something else depending on wind direction.

I've got the reserve dates booked as holiday so I could do those if needed.

I'm doing Portland at the end of the month so really would prefer not to do it now however?

Most sites are giving it doable except for Predict Wind which is currently saying Fridays no good but the rest of the weekend ok.  I will call my crew on Weds eve to decide when we're going

Watching with great hope, shall I go to Lidl for the special reserve port now or wait? I don't want to fork out over £5 a bottle if it won't get used in Alderney as it should only be consumed at ultra-special events.
