60mph winds? Isn't that just like standing-up on the pegs of a CG125 on a steep hill?

Hardly life-threatening Very Happy

Anglesea has it's own micro-climate so can't be used as a good forecast for the mainland though Wink

No stranger to high winds though if you live there. I can remember as a lad standing on the top of Mynydd Twr with a bunch of mates facing the sea, holding onto our coats like batman wings and jumping towards the cliffs edge to be blown back onto the mountain Very Happy

Nick I think it's been posted to late to have its maximum effect, best bet is to start its own dedicated thread or bide our time and wait for the next mention of 'V-Tech' for total shits and giggles Laughing Laughing Laughing .
