that's more like the wind we should be having huey
Ken - i stopped at train on way through but the carpark was more chockas than ever with people using it as a free all-day-parking (i think council will make parking in the cul de sac short lived as a result of this

). wind against tide at SW helped too
something's up with the coolangatta wind meter. it used to be fairly honest on a northerly but lately it's suffered severely from b.o.m bloat. I was sitting in my car at kirra at lunch time with no more than 10 knots, kiters couldn't even keep the kites in the air, yet the bom obs were saying 14-15knots
with the trough moving closer to the coast tomorrow, maybe it will be even better tomorrow?
