Sunday Sessions...

Morning dawned calm, cold and with a funky swell, a heck of a lot more than the forecasted 3ft @14s, followed by an epic evening sun filled glass off.

Steve (aka the goofy superstar) joined me for both high and low tide sessions. Here he is looking in anticipation for whats coming next.
The sun may have went down but the waves kept on coming
Last orders...

In a week when I felt I had largely missed out on waves today more than made up for it. Two super sessions, the first this morning on the push in funky/choppy waves a lot bigger than expected, (Must’ve been more than just a bit of northerly in the swell!) and again this evening on the drop but really clean, sunny, glassy and one of the better sessions I’ve had in a while. Seems that lately it’s been all about having your finger on the pulse, the onshores forecasted for all last week didn’t show and from the charts today wasn’t worth leaving the house for. Damn glad I did though…

Catching up...

Team leader Tommy no more... After working in Tesco for the past 5 years, I worked my final shift last Saturday.
Unsuccessfully searched for some Donegal delight on Sunday before heading off to see Maria in Scotland at the on Monday. Derry to Dundee, £55 return by bus and boat and only 11 1/2 hours each way...
Came back late last night and got up first thing this morn to catch some of yesterdays swell on the pushing tide.
Fortunately the early bird did catch the worm.
Aaron caught some sun too...
Don't drop your camera. I did and this is the result . The hunt for some replacement parts for one of my lens commences...
As the tide and swell dropped we ventured round the corner.
Thinking about it...
Quite liked the look of this Al Merrick
North Coast boat trip, not looking so much like Indo...

100 not out...

Few clean windy wans this afternoon

Rosy making the most of it
Rights off the rocks

Hoodlum

Making my way through the mess

Looks can be deceiving



Ventured south of the border to catch a few clean windy ones this afternoon. Unfortunately though as the wind dropped so too did the waves. Thought I'd make the most of the swell though and after some grub headed for another surf north of the border, trying to the make most of the unexpected 3 ft dumpy, heavy, beach break mess before dark.

Ps. This is also officially my 100th published post on confessions . Cheers to all who have read, commented and stuck links on their own sites. Heres to a 100 more!
