    I went to view high tide at both bays, they closed both marine drive links North bay to South bay and Foreshore/sandside in South bay. Also SC warned me and others to no watch out for large waves when high tide comes. I watched from a far not that bad at all. Plenty of surfers and canoes about those and odd coastguard. Even life boat got removed form its shed I assume because of the impending high tide and not because of a emergency

    I'm in Lowestoft too. I'm actually living in the flood risk area but luckily there wasn't any water here. We went for a walk along the seafront on friday morning to watch the waves crashing up.

    I was interviewed for Look East too and was on the lunchtime and evening news :o
