Down to the Pole Sands for lunch. Going to have to be renamed The Pole Pebbles - it is much more pebbley this year.

No wind but some thunderstorms. Not the ideal sail on the estuary for Lizs brother.

An up river dinghy cruise from SYC to the Goat Walk. Light winds on the way back. About 15 boats out.

A suprisingly breezy Monday evening sail.

With Nigel H on his Dart 18 avoiding the heatwave. Just enough wind for a cooling breeze.

Windy and slow on the way back

Up the river Clyst for a couple of miles and then back via Topsham. There was still more navigable water to be explored on the Clyst but left that for next time.

Safety boat for SYC dinghy cruise. Nearly an out to sea cruise but it was a little lumpy just out towards the fairway buoy.

A windy ride into Exeter and back, Liz still in post lurgie mode.

To the beach cafe and back. Sunny weather and F2 to F3.

Sccobys second canoe trip. To the Bull Sand and then down to the Warren. First trip out of his depth.

Some gusts but mostly lulls on short Wayfarer sail

Around to Dawlish with Nigel H on his Dart 18. A lovely sail. Took a while for the sea breeze to come in but once it did it was a pleasant, steady force 3 or so. Sun as well!

First time back on the bike after two week summer hols - hard work.

Into work and back. Not much wind which made it a bit easier.

Into Exeter and back with Liz. Straight into a headwind on the way home.

A windy ride into Exeter and back. Luckily the wind (F5 to F7 on Met Office forecast) was mostly on the side,

On safety boat duty for the first SYC dinghy cruise event of 2013. Lovely weather and a good wind but not much water on the neap tide. Upriver to the Goat Walk at Topsham.

Bike ride into town to look for a new old car given that our Citroen has just dies with only 77k on the clock.

Only the 2nd dinghy sail of the year. Up river as far as the Turf in a nice gentle breeze

Checking out new battery in Montana 600 GPS. Old one was about 7-8 years old and had probably done 500-600 recharges so can't complain too much.

Work cycle ride

Into and Exeter and back to work.

A paddle with Marija and Jeremy L up the Clyst as far as the Bridge Inn at Topsham. Quite neapy so not a lot of water at the mouth of the Clyst (even near the top of the tide). Wind was probably the F3 gusting F5 adverti…

With Nigel H in the inflatable Sea Eagle. Down against some tide and sea breeze to Bull Hill Bank. Then a lovely drift back with the tide and wind. Thanks to Derek H for the drone pics!

A light wind sail from Brixham to SYC on the Exe Estuary. Light winds but that was better than the forecast of next to no winds.

An SYC cruiser race from the Exe Safe Water Mark to the entrance of the Dart at Dartmouth. Then up to Dittisham for the night moored up on a visitors buoy. I think I need a new GPS with a bit more memory as the start of…

Too much talking too much wind and too much carrot cake to make for a respectable average speed but not bad on the distance front. Next week the girls will be cycling to Exmouth and back apparently.

First time back on the Exe Estuary after many, many months. First trip out on our new inflatable kayak - a Sea Eagle 465 FastTrack. Overall - very pleased with it.

First time out in the inflatable kayak this year. A lovely day and a lovely paddle for lunch in the Pole Sands and then a little explore round the far side of the Pole Sands.
