Gloucester could rightfully be called ‘City Of Gloucester And Severn Bore’ as this natural event continues to draw great support. Certainly in my travels watching the event I have never seen so many people out watching as I did today. Even the low light and chill in the air failed to put people off, it certainly didn’t put off the surfing enthusiasts. A few surfers managed to catch the large swell just before the bridge for a nail biting ride on the wave and the rest looked up river with dashed hopes as the large swell made its way to Maisemore Weir.
I bet they come back in March though, so look forward to another brave display with the elements, going up river when it changes direction again, roll on March…
