took the boys down for a look at 12 ish a couple were packing up, wind was very gusty and easterly a couple of others arrived when i left. got home 15 mins ago and it has started bucketing down with thunder and lightning, still debating whether to head back with gear or to stay dry. if storms leave might try for a surf at suttons when the tide drops a bit, plenty of rubbish still in the water.
rain still sideways still thunder and lightning
