Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?

Hippies glorified?

What here?

Look at the price of real estate my good man.

The last hippy moved out in 1984.

It's deck shoes and tweed patches at the pub.

Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?

I'm working on it A/boo. It' turned into quite an opus/love pome.

It's not a spectrum, it's an hierarchy.

Thats sounds harsh to democratic ears and the consciousness of an entitled middle class that believes anything worthwhile can be purchased.

Sneering? What? You'd strip the sole pleasure the vagabond has to arm himself against the disapprobation with which society views him . Quelle Horreur monseur. There's plenty smarter cunce than me, and I use the term most endearingly, who had it figured out. Thoreau said most men lead lives of quiet...

Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?

well yes. It was.

But it's now time to officially say, after a few nervous dabblings here and there.

Carrolls Back!

C'mon in NC the waters fine.

Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?

Depends......look at the fate of the cast of MOTE. Brocky is living simply and shaping boards and surfing. Baddy is fishing and surfing. Ted Spencer is living on Kauaui and surfing. They all stayed true, and didn't sell their soul in the process. Alby Falzon has his place at Scotts. There's plenty o...

Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?

Well what of 'em Beanpole? I think that is a phenomena for a separate thread. There's plenty of smart ones who figured out how to stay one step ahead of a society that wanted to cage them in. Some lucky ones to. And plenty who weren't lucky enough or smart enough...... Go read Peter Bowes if you wan...

Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?

This is more about the culture.  The rebel streak, the outsider and maverick identity of those who transcend societal expectations................ Gone, gone, gone. Says who? They all left Sydney in 1968. That would be when those mavericks gazed into the crystal ball and realised they were on a los...

Depends on whether you ordered your ballet shoes and tutu online from overseas and joined up the middle aged man ballet forum.

Re: " but I still love the old world"....Where to from here?

You're confused mate.

And in a state of denial.

Never thought I'd see the day when it becomes cool to come on a surf forum and say your not a surfer.

Good show.

I love the logic though.

Um...I'd have to call BS on that one Hatchy, judging by the numbers of IT workers who flock to the Northern Rivers.

Re: what do YOU want out a board?

Here's a short move I made about some mullet fishos.

Do these fine specimens look like wine drinkers to you>

Thats the problem with you Sydney metro's : incapable of seeing a world outside your own insular and well padded existence.

Re: what do YOU want out a board?

Alot depends on the time the mullet or mugil Cephalus as we here in Ballina shire know 'em as, have been swimming in the clear waters of the mighty Pacific. If the mullet has only just been ejected by biological imperatives (such as we are all want to fall prey to) from his muddy domicile in some cr...
