Derry Dawnie...

Back in Derry for the weekend visiting the folks and decided to head out for an early sesh with the bro, Aaron and Luke before they went to work. Was empty early but by the time Adam had a surf and grabbed the camera it had filled up...
Yours truly (though a few inches of hair shorter) coming from the the bottom...
and sitting off the top!
Kildare come Inishowen man, making the most of his morning before real life begins...
Pulling out and dropping in...
Luke and Aaron coming back up the beach from an apparently "far bigger, far better wave". The grass is always greener boys, but Lukes rye smile tells me there may have been some truth to the tale...

For all you Eagle eyed Tonnta readers out there you may notice I've got three different spellings of my name in the latest issue, Thom Smyth, Thom Smythe and Tom Smyth. Well here I am again, not quite making it...

Luke going left on the bendy Bic. (Just take a closeup at the nose of the board!)

Bump!Another wave, another Westbay

Dropping in...

The crew and the trusty overloaded fiesta. Massive thanks to the bro for cutting short his sesh to run in and grab the camera to give us some pics. Nice one Bruva!

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...

North Coast boat trip, not looking so much like Indo...
