They had probably lined the comp up for Wales but their decision was swayed by all of steve's posts talking up the superiority of Lennox.

So the council recommendation is to support it.

And no Bells at Easter, at least Torquay locals will be happy.

Hit the Bra and had a fun little uncrowded grovel. The look of grim determination on the faces of some of the mid forties chunky punters trying to push their fat little bubble boards around in the side chopped lumps is a sight to behold.

“RECOMMENDATION
That Council provides in principle support to the proposed World Surf League event at Lennox Head, subject to adequate conditions being placed on the event, as determined by the General Manager, in relation to environmental values, community amenity, traffic management and pedestrian access.“

But the parking, what about the parking?

It’s going ahead. Barilaro is involved, it’s going ahead. Guy doesn’t give two fucks about community opinion.

He’s the one that called koalas tree rats. And that people should be allowed to cut down trees in a koala habitat. It’s going ahead.

Hold the fucking phone ... Netflix wants to buy the rights to the story and the script writers are already at work.

Question time: Will Shearer get to play Shearer or will they be dusting of Duvall ?

Funnily enough, it'll be shot on location and cause about 10,000 more problems than the actual comp would.

There's a few working titles being bandied about, but they're really keen for input from real surfers.
