The Parabola Project.....

We got introduced to this one via Clare Howdle who's writing the vanity project and thought it would be good to share it with you lovely people!


The Parabola Project, a collection of short stories, poems and novel extracts from Cornwall's writing talent - out now!

It has been beautifully put together and is a great read, perfect Christmas gift/stocking filler and every penny goes back into the publishing pot to give the county's writers and imagemakers an opportunity to get their work in print.

It's just £4 (+£1 p +p) - and you can buy it online. Check out the website - www.parabolaproject.com to find out more and read interviews with the featured writers, as well extra Parabola Project content.

A night for Tom...

'A night for Tom' is an evening to celebrate the life of Tom Clinton and to raise awareness and money for his fund 'Catch a wave' which supports the Jodie O'shea orphanage in Bali Indonesia.

As you'll know if you regularly read our blog, on the 30th November 2009 our good friend Tom tragically lost his life, aged 26, in a bike accident on the island of Bali.
He was a top class surfer, a keen water photographer, spear fisherman, free diver and a best friend to everyone he met.

'A night for Tom' will be held at Trethiggey touring park Quintrell downs Newquay on the 25th of September from 7pm till 12am.

There will be live music, a raffle and giveaways for various prizes including a champagne hamper, a custom Seed surf co. surfboard made for you, catch a wave and seed clothing.
All washed down with local ales, lagers and a few pasties thrown in for good measure!!

Tickets will be £5 and will be available from Wednesday 15th from Dudes salon Newquay, Trethiggey Touring park. Tickets can also be posted or bought on the door.

ALL proceeds from tickets will go straight to Tom's Catch a wave fund.


Everybody is welcome, so please come along and support. If you are planning to attend let us know hear.....

Just to make you all feel loved after a bit of blog neglection here's some bits we've been upto the last month or so.................

Somethings stirring......in the west!!!!

With the winds from the west and northwest it seemed like time to be changing things so we've been re-fitting the shop, adding new designs, new boards for the rack and with customs going out the door some things have been neglected............ like the blog and the web-site.
With a few glitches recently on the main site we decided the winds of change should really take hold, so there'll be a shiney new site soon, to go along with the shop, boards and clothing.
As we missed out on doing our 1st year anniversary party of the shop, we're thinking once the shop fit is done and the new site is live maybe a bit of a celebration is on the cards!
Possibly to welcome in some Autum swells and wave goodbye to the summer!!
Tell us if your keen, as if all goes to plan there could be some prizes/discounts/beers or wine/fruit based drinks for the ladies, to give away at the shindig for the first Ten to get back to us!!
