Fri 21 Sat 22 Sun 23 Nov 08


Time in lieu from work. Arrived Thurs nite. Slept in. Low tide middle of the day and had planned to try and walk around under the lighthouse. Set off from Sunnymeade an hour before low tide. Got past under lighthouse to the place we’ve got to before but again couldn’t get past. In fact tide was probably already 15 mins on the way in. Walked back to Sunnymeade and had lunch on the beach. V still sea and sunny. Surf v small and smaller in afternoon. Morning was probably the time to have a session.

Sat 22
Got up and ready to go out for a surf about 7.30 v windy but I was hoping there might be something. As I was about to leave, huge gusts of wind, rain and then sheets of hail… banked in the end like snow on the deck. I gave up and watched Endless Summer 2 which I’d borrowed from the video store. Pretty bad, boys movie, daggy, some good surf. Rest of the day prepared for ACTF interview, fire on all day. Sachy has a sore leg so no walk. Watched videos that nigh, but they were no good.Bondi Tsunami and Good Man of New York, Al Pacino

Sun 23
Still bad weather but didn’t need a fire. P and I left Sachy at home and walked at Roadknight, sheltered a bit from the raging SSW wind. Walked all the way round to Anglesea which we’d never done before. Home and lunch. More CV. Then 3.30 back to Roadknight to try for a surf. It was possible tho still v windy. Only a few out. The older woman with the kombi and the young woman she surfs with (daughter?) The young one good, catching everything, all the crappy little waves, gets off paddles out turns round catches the next one. I got a few but they were small and died under my feet. Good to get wet but a bit frustrating. Havent had a good surf now for a few weeks.
