Curious conversation on a bus in Reading
A couple of years ago I was sitting on a bus headed into Reading. There were a couple of ladies sitting in the seat behind me, discussing their forthcoming holidays. One of them was saying that she and her hubbie would be going to their usual surfing mecca... in Thurso.
My ears picked up at this and I listened intently to the conversation - I now, nosey, aren't I? However, I do feel that I had just cause. After a while my curiosity got the better of me and I introduced myself. Having lived in Thurso and never known surfing there I just had to find out.
It seems that Thurso is as you claim - considered to be one of the best places in the UK for quality surfing. Well, I was gob-smacked, as they say down here!
