Saunton Surf 22nd May 2010
On the warmest day of the year so far a group of examus finishus (latin for those who have finished exams), and a couple trying to avoid revision, headed to Saunton to take advantage of the surf we’ve been lacking recently.
There were a few first-timers at surfing amongst us, and they all did very well. A fair bit of time was spent out-back waiting for the perfect break and drifting further and further from the car park.
When we finally came back on to dryland, we went for a quick dip in the appealing, but very cold water, this was followed by much splashing and dunking, as well as try to jump over incoming waves.
Amateur hour goes to JC for walking the mile or so back to the car park but not taking his boat, leaving someone having to carry their boat and drag his boat all the way back, no hard feelings!
This fantastic day ended with fish and chips in Braunton and a pint at the impy. Now I need to start some revision….
