Surf jumble tomorrow

Bring & buy!
Have a clear out and make some cash at the Surf Jumble, on 5 December at St Merryn Village Hall, Cornwall. Or if you prefer shopping to selling, pop along and pick up a bargain – it’s the perfect antitdote to a credit-crunch Christmas…
Positive portraits
While I’m wary of sweeping generalisations, I think it’s fair to say that female surfers are frequently portrayed as mere fashion mannequins, their images used to flog us more useless crap. So when this bunch of strong, celebratory, retro-tinged pictures dropped into my inbox it was a wonderful change from the norm. Meet photographer Shosh Bowles - capturing all that is positive about women’s surfing…
Drift @ howies – 21 November
