Last Posting of 2009 - Stormy sea at Roker

I have seen larger waves breaking over the pier, sometimes they are as high as the lighthouse, but the combination of a boiling sea within the harbour and the spray over the pier caught my eye here. People have been swept away to their deaths from Roker pier, despite there being a gate preventing access when the weather is rough.
