AngiePost subject: SURF THIS WEEKEND - important! 
Posts: 224

okay this email risks sounding a bit like you mum on the phone, and for that i'm sorry, but after much ummming and ahhhing think it needs to be meantioned.

Forcast for North Devon (our choosen destination) is 3 to -6 degrees Sat and Sun, and chance of snow showers. And theres snow on the floor at the moment. Surf's 1- 3 foot. Northery winds.

Okay decoded thats fecking nippy n small to medium surf.

I know that all sounds pesimistic - but i am a tad worried bout everyones camping gear so thought you should know. The trip will still run, but if you wish to quit now no one will think any less of you for it. You just need to tell me asap (before lunch tommorrow).

If you're still up for it pls also email and pack your hat!

PS also i know this is hard given the above but we are taking cars and space is limited so just be sensible.

Sounds a bit nippy.

I'm hoping the north atlantic drift will make conditions positively tropical compared to inland kayaking.

I'm still hoping.

The North Atlantic Drift??! do you mean the gulf stream? Not sure how the growing mid-atlantic trench will warm the north coast of devon...
