Possibly the smallest surf ever?

On Sunday I agreed to go for a surf at Sidmouth with Mitch, the boss at AS Watersports. The forecast looked favourable, but on arrival at the beach the waves that we found were tiny. But the weather was fantastic, blue skies, sunshine and warm. So after a stroll into town to get a quick bite to eat, I got geared up and got in the water. The waves may have only been a foot high, or less, but it was too nice a day not to get in and have a splash about. We also got to watch the local RLNI crew practising their boat to helicopter hand overs.
