Ahhhhh, that sweet sweet smell of a tropical cyclone. Almost as good as the resin smell coming off my new Quad!!!

They even named it after the new world champ.

If only the high sitting over the tasman would budge E, and give it somethin' to squeeze against. But unfortunately that aint lookin' likely.

Dont get me wrong Tiger, we aint gonna see anything huge....but these compact little fetches can sometimes send in some swell that sneaks under the radar (well at least under the radar of the wave models anyway).

TMC, I didn't post that link, you've taken it out of context by constructing quotes.

Don posted that link...

I don't, but boy what a fine bunch of blokes they are, and forecasting talents, woohoo, these guys are the bomb man. Can't get enough of 'em, and the stories from Stu, what a talent, boy can he write.

In fact I recommend that everyone go there immediately. In fact, I'll supply the link, just click on this;

http://www.swellnet.com.au/

Make sure you tool around on the site for hours and click on everything you can get your mouse on.

What's not to love about 'em?

You boys at swellnet need a cleaner, or someone to get the coffees for ya, clean the shit off the walls after a big night out, or do some of the admin, get regular updates of the latest playboys (for the articles, of course)? I'm available thursdays and fridays, any time from end of January 2010, and the pay rate expectations are not high. cheers

Thanks anyway Oldman, but that's what we pay Craig (SASurfa) for.

See you Wednesday!
