Anyone anything else they can here too?

Just had a copy of the item in the courier sent to me (cheers dad) . The surf lessons are being taken by Mark and Al from the pool in Lochgilphead. Both will be recognised by anyone who uses the beaches, as they have been surfing with the rest of us for a good few years. Sounds like it could be really good and encourage more of the youngsters in the area to get into the surfing. Good luck to Mark and Al with the new venture.
