There's surfing in the UK, believe it or not.  Just remember to pack your wetsuit.  I hear Ireland gets its share of swells.

I think its "leg pipes" - the exhaust pipes that run outside and below the door.

And one more thing, I've got the pink slip, daddy!

Sorry, it's Lake Pipes .  A type of open exhaust used in the early days of racing 'Hot Rods'  on dry lakes.

Newquay (SW England) has good surf - international competitions and all. Atlantic Ocean rollers. Did alot of surfing down there as a kid; on a good day you don't need a wetsuit.

Soft lad. :) I was body boarding at 11 years old in swimming trunks - while it rained on me. Although, if you wanted to stay long in there you needed a wetsuit.

hmmm.... on the one hand you have a tiny little beach with no sun and translucently white buck toothed guys who just left their mini's and morris's parked on the wrong side of the road...

and on the other.... long sun drenched beaches of southern California filled with white teethed bronzed kids who just parked their duece coupes and 409 convertables....

Plain or Peanut?

I kind of like the Almond ones, although I can leave the peanut butter ones... Reeses pieces are better.  The Krispie ones suck.

Sorry - wasn't close enough to check any teeth or skin tones.

Yep, just steer clear of the sharks. They have Great Whites off that coast. Attacks have been known to take place as close as 50 yards from the shore, and in 5 feet of water. I read the warning signs at Stinson Beach about 30m N of SF. OK, that's not SoCal, but it's not that far and it's the same coastline.

On a hot summers day, Crantock near Newquay is amazing. Spent many holidays there as a kid.

why do they have their clothes on at the beach? :)

funny to watch them pile into the North Sea on a record 72F day back in '71 (Tynemouth) when the water was in the 50's. This southern Yankee was standing there with a sweater on shielding my eyes from the glare off the pasty almost translucent bodies :)

That's because you were in the North-East - Newquay is in the South-West - makes all the difference. :)

I was at uni in the North-East - the beaches are good for one thing, walking on when fully clothed, apart from maybe two days in the year. Ever see Get Carter, with Michael Caine? The end scene on the beach was filmed at Seaham in the NE - not many sunbathers to be seen. ;)
