Oh yes- meant say… great piccies. I also have a number from our time there (we still had analogue camera’s with 35mm film back then)and thus not as clear as those posted here. Very well done!

Hi Julian. I find your post quite interesting. From 1995-1997 we lived in Kalk Bay opposite the harbour. One Sunday evening two guys and a girl were knocked off the harbour wall – she swam out and reached the Brass Bell Restaurant area (Opposite the station) while her boyfriend (who also made it out) returned to save a friend. Sadly both males perished and due to the violence of the storm were only recovered three weeks later miles away from the harbour. It was published in the Sunday Times (front page with colour picture) and that article I do have. Obviously a much earlier incident than what you refer to here.

Sorry, I didn’t photograph those Kalk Bay Storms. Looks like we might have some nice new ones headed our way in the new future though.
