Bluebird Electric Team Hit With Setbacks at Pendine
Bluebird Electric Team Hit With Setbacks at Pendine: "Bluebird ElectricEver since the mid-1920, the Campbell family have used the Pendine sand in Carmarthenshire, Wales as the home for their Bluebird record attempts. This weekend, Don Wales – grandson of the celebrated Malcolm Campbell and nephew of Donald Campbell – and his son Joseph arrived there, hoping to bring glory to Britain.
The team behind the electric land speed record attempt has already been hit by countless hurdles in their quest for speed: delayed component parts, canceled runs, tight budgets, limited testing and a tight schedule. Added to all of this is the limited time between the low tides in which an attempt is viable.
On Saturday, the Bluebird Electric hit the Pendine sands for the first time, as Joseph took the seat for the second time in his career. Limited visibility from inside the cockpit resulted in the car bouncing several times on the uneven surface of the beach. The resulting impact damaged the bodyshell, steering components and disconnected a bottom wishbone."

Fishing Wales - fishery details
Fishing Wales - fishery details: "Situated on the northern edge of Carmarthen Bay Pendine is one of the classic Welsh storm beaches. Facing in a south-westerly direction this vast expanse of golden sands frequently plays host to the kind of rolling Atlantic surf which screams out to be fished. Flounder and bass are the main species and both can be caught pretty much the year round though for flounders October through to the New Year is the optimum time for specimen fish but the fishing can be almost equally as good during the spring and summer. For bass there are two productive periods firstly during the spring and then later in the year during autumn and early winter. Other species caught during spring and summer include dogfish a few silver eel's golden-grey mullet and an occasional small turbot."

Digital Couch Issue 24 | Tech Specialist B2C and B2B Marketing Blog from BANNER: "Nokia has not had the best year. With Apple and android taking a huge chunk out of the smartphone market, the Finnish manufacturer has gone from ubiquitous to: “Really? You still have a Nokia?”
But not a company to be put down, Nokia’s new N-Series devices have had some pretty impressive ad campaigns to match their smartphone technology. The N8 “Gulp” campaign, by UK agency Wieden+Kennedy, was shot on Pendine Beach in Wales with a bunch of spades and lots of time. Aimed at creating the world’s largest stop-motion video, sand, “Wallace & Grommit” creators Aardman came together to tell a fishy tale.
The most impressive feature? The entire video was shot on the 12Mpx N8 smartphone camera. It’s just a pity you have to wait nearly a minute and a half to find out."
