This morning the boys were out at Sunset Reef in Kommetjie, this afternoon, after a short boat trip across the boy the action shifted to Dungeons.

Tuesday 13 July 2010 Plans are in the pipeline to build a nuclear power plant in the Thyspunt area, between J-Bay and Cape St Francis. While most people have the gut reaction against the idea of a nuclear power plant being built in this area, feelings are not always enough. Below you will find the executive summary on the Nuclear situation from the Thyspunt Alliance group. This was issued in response to an apparently flawed environmental impact report. Once you have read it, you'll be armed to act. Stand up against the powers that be to ensure a potentially less polluted and healthier environment for one of South Africa’s best waves (and most beautiful places), join the SAVE THYSPUNT NUCLEAR RALLY this Saturday at 9:30am in Jeffrey's Bay. The rally will start in front of the Country Feeling Surfshop and march to the municipality. R20 gets you a ticket in a raffle for a Firewire surfboard, and the organisers ask that you wear black or yellow. But before you go charging off, find out what's what's going on. Get educated, and make a difference.
