ive been told when the conditions are right i have some of the best waves in the world about 2 hours away on the North East coast of the UK

You mean when the pack ice thaws enough for the waves to form ?

Brrr.... surfing and England just don't seem to go together...and I live on the south coast of Aus where it gets cold too !

Looks like Bells will be decided today... Kelly Slater is the favourite...

You would be surprised how many Australian surfers are over here, i was at a small bay near St Ives that is sheltered from the Atlantic and gets surf maybe once every year and an Australian pulled up in his car, there were about 10 surfers in the water, he took one look and drove off, this is how big it was i never saw waves like this when i lived there
