Its really annoying me at the mo that when I get home from school I cant go and surf, cos when I do get back home its getting dark. I only get to surf at the weekends now and its soooooo crowded then.
Random Q: What time is the sun setting down in the south of the UK and do you get to surf from after about 4:30pm?

I have this problem too. The only chance I get to surf now is on weekends. Im in uni 28hrs a week from 9 up to 5. It gets dark here between 5-6pm.

I'm quite lucky all though i'm supposed to work during the week, i can shut up shop occasionally if its really going off, cause its my own place.

I work the perfect hours for being a surfer. I start at 6:00PM, and get off work at 2:00AM.

Drive there in the dark to be in the water for 1st light. (about 6:45am atm) you got a good hour/ hour and a half before you gotta stert thinking about getting out for work etc.

If it was my own place it would always be empty
I might let a few people in every now and again, but limited numbers so it wouldn't be over crowded ever.

The London thing can't remember where there planning to build, but sure if you search the net you'll find some details.
