Combination

Keep the combination secret and don’t allow non members into the hut.

Padlock usage

Handle the padlock carefully and never be too rough with it (We have spent over £80 on 3 padlocks since June due to misuse and sand in the workings). Always leave the padlock hanging on the handle and do not leave it on the ground/sand or grass as it gets ruined when sand gets inside the moveable parts.

Rubbish

Things are bit better lately so thank you for that but they are not perfect so please take any litter, all bits of clothing, towels, wet wet suits, broken old board bags,cycles etc home with you.

Shed usage

This might be a contentious issue but please remember this is not really a changing room or bike shed, it is a board store – there is just not sufficient space. Sadly, neither is it somewhere to ‘hang out’ as it is on private land so please collect your board, lock up the hut, and leave your clothes, bikes etc over the road (Against the wall on the tarmac area with railings overlooking T’Other side at the south side of the car park and maybe bring a bin sack to keep clothes dry.) In exceptional circumstances aspects of this rule may be temporarily waived.e.g if it is raining heavily then leave your clothes in a neat pile in the hut or similarly leave your bike if you have a puncture etc.

Label Equipment

Label your equipment with a waterproof pen. Include your name and telephone number.
