A few days in Cornwall, staying at . Got in the sea each day with some lovely waves. Popped into to see Steve and picked up some Yuccas (will be testing them soon). Random moments included calling out to Rick Stein and being interviewed by a TV company. Gotta love Kernow!

I can't fully explain how fast it feels as it pulls your through the water. It just drives you along.


Not that I was being competitive or anything, but I outrun a couple of boogieboarders. Many times!

Any ideas?
I'm probably not going to be doing any more markets this year, but would like to have a place where people can see my bellyboards. As they take up a bit of room, it needs to be somewhere with enough space.
I wouldn't want to tread on any other board makers' toes, so has to local to Portsmouth.
Of you have an idea, please do let me know 🤙
