Started lessons with a group of work mates one summer. Didn't do too badly on two skis but had difficulty swapping up to a mono ski. No balance so swapped skis for a wakeboard! -

This has become a firm favourite. I LOVE wakeboarding. The first time I did this was at the end of a day waterskiing. Heading home, I just thought I would give it a try. Got up first time! Loved it instantly and think / hope to be ... -

This was on a coach trip to visit an active volcano on Lanzarote but it was all very "controlled", remain in the coach blah, blah. Disappointed. Would love to get closer. Maybe Hekkla in Iceland one day? -

Strapped up then realised I would have to "step off" the edge myself. Too the assistant "you'll have to push me or I won't go". She obliged and off I went. Must admit I had my eyes closed for some of the journey! -

Drove to Cornwall in the South West of England as this was supposed to be the best place to see it. Was surprised how the temperature dropped and when it was over, loved watching the cows in the field all head back to the farm thinking i...
