White pudding hegemony is the noise Grooter makes when he falls over while gardening.

I just stumbled across some quite interesting wave buoy data. steve can probably help you with the technicalities if you're struggling iggy.

Port Kembla, Australia:

- Mean Hsig 1974-2009 - 1.58m
- Maximum Hsig - 8.43m

Sydney, Australia:

- Mean Hsig 1987-2009 - 1.63m
- Maximum Hsig - 8.43m

South Pembrokeshire, Wales:

- Mean Hsig 1994-2014 - 1.63m
- Maximum Hsig - 11.0m
Highlights from the Welsh National titles. They tried bloody hard in these peak conditions. A+ for effort.

5 long surfs in a row. I’m done for a day or two. It’s been pretty good here.

Awesome find.

I like the various array of squid lids.

My favourite was the straight leg back hand attack. To be fair the conditions didn’t help the poor lad.

That must be langentihltlg or whatever it’s called. Gentle sloping sandbanks stretching out for hundreds of metres with crumbling tiddlers rolling in. The electric guitars helped spice things up but !

Sure I do. But what the above data show is that even though we may or may not have a tighter swell window than NSW, the amount of swell that arrives is the same.

To tell the truth eggs are one thing I avoid buying when I’m grocery shopping. So you may say I’m an intermittent egg buyer who usually lets someone else buy them.

Nice. Looks like any number of good winter or autumn days we get here.
