Massage hasn't helped, Cranky? I thought the place would be crawling with yoga instructors, remedial therapists and chiropractors. I had a really good massage, still got the bruises to prove it. It brought temporary relief. Maybe I've got some whiplash from that bike crash. I'll go to the hospital ...

Hmm. It feels like I’m losing control of my tortuous metaphor somewhat

The faun's OK I think, Lucky Al. I think he makes it. Things look pretty gloomy for the penguins though

Oh mine too, BA, mine too. Masterful and authoritative, like a strapping six-footer with a huge bristling moustache

What about being a whiny little bitch about people who are being whiny little bitches? Is that ok? Christ it’s an absolute minefield

Offy I think you’re on to something. The unbearable pressure to be that taciturn brute at the barbie clearly represses the inner ponce, with cataclysmic consequences

The first Surftechs had a tuflite decal on the deck by the leash plug and the later ones a small surftech 'S' behind the back fin plug. Also the surftechs didn't have a stringer - pretend or otherwise - and the fin plugs were integrated not drilled. The dings look like PU too. I'm saying PU and I'll...

We are all beanpole, Trev

Yeah, surftech did a few tuflite Carvers (6'6, 7'0, 7'6??) and I think that a couple of the quite well rated surftech softop models were Carvers under the hood but not labelled as such

France-Italy?

Somewhere german-speaking, no doubt

Ah, then it will be irrevocable chemical build up during the growth phase from recruit to adult and the mass acid release/dieback that occurs thereafter
