Wow :shock: I'm just watching film from the Japanese tsunami of 2011 on More4 and now this!!
Has there been an earthquake or just high tides and winds as in the west coast here?

Wow, hope Martins and other restaurants and hotel have good doors or had sandbags down. Puzzled why there are cars parked in the square. :shock:

I believe the boat was moved up to Sully's in anticipation. Wonder what happened to the other boats?

THe boats were all moved well out of the way earlier in the day.
Grande cafe had some damage but Barca was the most badly affected they were working n there today.

Michael Crane - you'll know how to get it onto here much better than me but there's a video on Luz Surf Village on FB of a dude riding a wave in Lagos a couple of days ago, pretty damn incredible, not to say knackering
