There to greet these perfect waves were the wave hungry junior surfing academy armed with their INT wave riding vehicles.

Another great day out in Mumbles for the August Bank Holiday weekend, if you missed it please come next year

The weather played ball and Mumbles Village was bouncing with visitors due to the three events on. Being the Jimmy Cracker sevens (pic above of our surfgsd team), the Mumbles raft race and the mad hatters tea party.

The rugby started a bit earlier than normal and less teams allowed in as the organisers wanted to finish in time for the start of the raft race at 18.00 all the local pubs etc were packed and it was almost like the good old days with everyone ending up at Cinderellas to dance the rest of the night away.

Unfortunately for me I ended up in the famous Monkey bar in town and did not get home until 5 a.m which seemed a good idea at the time honestly!

Thanks to Mumbles RFC for organising the sevens and the refs that turned up to run the games for us.. good effort and looking forward to next years tournament already..

Anyway, another summer is over let us hope next year the sun will shine more for us all.

Surf season is coming...

Sun comes out for surfers at Caswell Bay, Swansea

Warming up after lunch, then back into the water, what a great way for these healthy young people to spend their summer holidays rather than stuck indoors playing on a computer game.

Oahu, Hawaii.

I love Hawaii, it's that simple. Every wave tests you and your ability. I truly believe that if one is to be a surfer he/she must travel to the home of surfing to sample it's delights at least once.

Pays Basque

A great place to eat good food, surf excellent waves if your lucky. Go out of the silly season and you will score perfect waves.
