If you grew up in North London, surfing was not an option…..

………and if you’re as graceless and clumsy as I am, it certainly wasn’t. Any attempts at skateboarding, windsurfing and waterskiing all ended in……well, you can imagine. So I could only ever pretend I was going to Surf City. I’ll be pretending today. And yes, I always thought this was The Beach Boys too.
