It was very, very small at Perran yesterday. But I ran into Ingrid, whom I met in Thurso three years ago at Rick's cafe, as well as Rich, former campaigns director of SAS. Also there were various of the Bleakley clan and Darren from Sennen Cove. As I left I bumped into Ben Cook. Surfing is nothing if not interconnected.
In the water, though, there was an outbreak of aggro. It didn't involve me but I was within earshot. Some most unpleasant words were uttered. Perhaps the hour-long wait between what occasionally resembled waves was the explanation.
But although it was small, I'm glad it wasn't big. As in, Oakley Surfing Life Big Wave Awards big.
