The internet lies! Before I went to bed last night this mornings forecast was saying 1.5m at 11 sec with very light WSW winds. In other words it was looking quite good. The reality was a terribly junky onshore ocean which was offering nothing really worthy, except a chance to hang out with this season's first batch of bluebottles!

I spent the early hours mostly cowering in the lifeguard room at Bronte, as mini rain squalls blew across an empty beach.

Rob Bruns turned up with his band of 'before school surfing' groms, otherwise it would have remained an empty lineup.

Tim Bonython's 'Immersion' movie went down big at the Rat House the other night, where one very lucky lady walked away with the Frothers Gallery major prize – a huge acrylic mounted image ready to hang on her wall and she looked pretty happy about it.

If you haven't seen 'Immersion, The Movie', it's on again at the Randwick Ritz this Sunday afternoon at 4:15. Get tickets HERE.
