Re: the little girly booger environmental vandals from DY ...

It looked like the former Berlin Wall by 10.30 am. All the little kids had decided to dig it deeper and build the walls up. Should have confiscated his lid in front of his mates, paddled out as far as you could and made the pr*ck fetch. Side note: everybody calls Long Reef, Longy, so simmer. Side no...

Re: Local bullies

Make him get back in the water ASAP. Sure NN and DY point when its pumping are no go zones unless you are the crew, shit hot or have an invite - which is fair but really he encounted an anomolie i reckon.

Re: BEDE DURBIDGE AND A LACK OF SPONSOR

Petria Thomas bemoaned the fact that she never had a sponsor, no one was game to say to her she had a head like a beaten favourite, but its a rank world we live in when sales to young males (and old) are predicated on looks. So gaylord metro. Patagonia may be a good fit for Bede. Yeah, cos most of ...

Bit of a foot placement problem

Have recently developed the awful habit of popping with my feet closer together than usual and then adjusting my front foot rather than back - its driving me insane.

Re: POSSUM VIOLATES WETSUIT

Dry it out, buy 2 boxes of moth balls from the chemist and seal them in a plastic container for a week or 2. If you can handle the moth ball smell you are set. If it doesnt work that well use it in a possum trap. You have to have a dig before you toss the suit. Local cats pissed on and ripped the le...
