Kimmeridge Water Taxi !!

2 boats will be in operation tomorrow, to ferry you to the wave of your choice for the usual nominal fee.Matt Grunger and I used the service today to go to yellows and have to say it was a first class service, dropped straight in the lineup just in time for a set!. the boatman was knowledgeable and informative if a little stoned and waved us a fond farewell,with the offer of popping back to see if the wave was ok/or would we like to try another wave? it doesnt get much better?. The usual rules apply--no secret spots,no scousers,no riff raff,or que jumping drop in artists and of course no SUP!.

BIG COUNTRY-- WHERE THE ROSE IS SOWN

Scotlands finest band from the 80's with the powerful anti war song written by Stuart Adamson at the time of the Falklands War. The lyrics are a very moving and astute observation of  war, any war not just the Falklands.Needless to say Stuart Adamson was a man of peace and a humanitarian who created a totally unique sound with the rest of Big Country, they made the guitars sound like Bagpipes which is clearly a nod to their Celtic roots, sometimes dismissed as a pop band, they were deeper than that, revered by U2 amongst many of their peers as a major band of substance. Stuart sadly took his own life in 2001.have a listen to this song on you tube, and as it said on my copy of John Lennons Instant Karma-- PLAY LOUD !!

TODAY AT THE BAY {you may have missed it}







OLI "P" pics  1&2, pics 3&4 old skool shelter model Bonzer {as used by stokesy} pics 5&6 Beach Beat single fin shaped by yankee shaper Gary McNab, and "our" kid looking like he's up to something?. It is written that if you "missed it" you must wind someone up by telling them? who knows they may have mental health issues and this could be the spark they need to send them over the top ? surely that is the spirit of surfing??
