Megs - like a daughter


We are very proud of the two people in the photo here with yellow vests. On the left we have Paddy, who's an assistant instructor and on the right we have Megs, who's a fully fledged surf coach. Both were original members of the Surf's Up! Boardriders Club - both have been to France, Portugal and Bali with us and now both are working on the beach for us. It's a fantastic story. We began the Club six years ago to encourage the local kids to get in the surf - before then there was only a handful of keen locals taking it on regularly. Now there's loads of them, all of who've been through the club. Harriet is another great example - she too came on our trips abroad, achieved the heady distinction of being club captain accompanying me up to London to receive the Access Sport Club of the Year trophy, worked on the beach for us and then when leaving school last year travelled abroad ending up in Oz as a surf instructor. It's all good news.

Billyman is back - he went, a boy, and returned, a man! Great to have him home. He obviously has had a fantastic time - so a big thanks to Mr. Lane and his team.
