Hello Friends,

The wind’s backed off a little as we head toward evening. The water down at Dee Why is not looking too lovely (note the colour in the picture), but that hasn’t put off 30 odd people (at least) from having a go. There are some okay sections in amongst the general messiness. Again, the beachy is bigger and more consistent than the point. Although I haven’t been in the water myself today, it looks from all the wetsuits, as though the water’s not only woofy, but chilly as well. Certainly it had a bit of bite to it a couple days ago.

If you like these conditions then that’s good because we’re going to have a lot more of the same.  I agree with the Goat that we’re basically into an extended period of this stuff.

Better than being flat anyway.

Have yourself a top old evening one and all.
