and how exactly does one calculate the effect of sunspots differently on each and every fairly small surface of the earth. what was the prediction for, say, Tennessee for the same period. bit like using sheep's bladders to predict earthquakes really isn't it. One doesn't. One looks at what happened...

Jeezus....sorry, doesn't his son do it now. Thats who I mean. Maybe he speaks from the grave..... Yeah. Haydon Walker. My understanding is that Walker predicated his forecasts on sunspot activity. In short he was transposing a mid C19th charlatan wanker delivery to a sympathetic (Queensland) audien...

supposed weather gurus....hahhahahahaaaaaa,,,,I hear Lennox Walker is on the money with ultra long range forecasts

They'd have to be Looong range.
He died in 2000

thanks puurri.
Even I can understand all that.
I'll take this back

^^^ Interesting stuff. They usually trade it and other gongs amongst a tight circle of mates / the sisterhood (Grenville, Fox, Heiss etc). If you can't crack a gig at the various writers festivals or a Bundanon or a Varuna residency then you're on the outer. FWIW it's a real self serving bitchocrac...

I think DV8 and speedneedle would be the only ones on this forum who might know my details (and maybe mods/admins). Well you see. That's the grey area. Serious assault case - court order on Don Norris - case very much out in the open. Especially if Unit decides to deny all charges and proclaim his ...

where did the swell go trev!? i got there mid arvo and it was 2 footish, reef was 3-4 but it was stupidly bumpy. tucked in at ann proved alright :| Don't know mate. Still waves at the point at 4.30 but pretty close to high tide so very full. Quite a few short boarders on it though. This morning was...

LOM, I don't understand your problem. This is a discussion forum. Chris has expressed a very genuine concern in this electronic age. One can assume our comments on here will go unnoticed but we've had a few instances of Realsurf being quoted elsewhere so it's not too way out to consider it might hap...

Sorry Dino. It's a short board.

TREV, or anyone around that area! is there still waves about? im keen to have a dip around kings/moffs? I think the wind would be intoit at Kings but other side of hte headland should be OK. The swell didn't look like it was going to go away in a hurry. I'm hopefull it'll still be there tomorrow. H...

Tom, these are for you (and Don.W). :lol: This morning AFTER my 2+ hours.

I hate you Trev!!!

Should I give myself a coupl eof these ?

ps. Watch this space.

I got two sessions in Don's swell today and I'm gonna get more tomorrow.
I just realised today when I was paddling out at 2 pm that even 2 years after retirement I still sometimes feel like a truant when I surf during the week.
I'm working on overcoming that.

Two surfs today.
First at dawn at my local point.
Good, long period swell just as Don.W predicted.
And this afternoon at the same place. Bigger.
Tomorrow's looking good.

I've never taken very good care of my wetsuits except to occasionaly rinse them off with the hose while they are hanging up. As someone else said, I eventually learned to hang them in the middle not by the shoulders which all stretched and became virtually see-through. Only buy O'Neill, good fit, go...
