Does anyone know how I can find out what the surf's going to be like in Sutton-On-Sea this weekend.

Yeah, I know Sutton's not exactly 'surf city' and the water's filthy, but yes - I'm that desperate!!

Looks like there's hope of me finding 'the plot' if this picture of Sutton is anything to go by!!

It might even be worth braving the filthy water!

Think I'll wear my old wetsuit if I do though!!

It's a silty sea bed that gives it the colour. I forget what it's like not to be able to see your feet when I'm in the lineup.

Well I got there, climbed over the dunes to the seafront and there it was:

Light offshores making super-clean lines peeling left & right.

The only problem was it was about 1ft high breaking into 6 inches of water!!

Gutted!
