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.

Did you get any of that swell jimmy posted a link to? Would have liked to see someone like John John or you to take off deeper on some of those.

If that was wales all their stances would’ve been at least another ten inches further apart

Yeah I dunno about that. There’s a clip somewhere on YT with some Welshman riding a Guts Surfboard, trip to Scotland, Thurso I think, some epic barrel-dodge poo-stance on display.

Went for a flounder on the mal. Eventually caught a couple but floated around like a bit of flotsam for most of the surf. Waters warm. Not much stamina after COVID.

Floundered around again. Got one good one and a few mediocre waves before high tide ate it up. Waters nice and not too crowded.

Had a really weird surf this morning.
Got some good ones.
In the water at 5.45am
Heavy clouds so still a bit hard to see. Gentle offshore.

By the time I paddled out, there was a strong onshore ESE blowing.
Caught a few head high waves, a bit crumbly but fun.
Wind backed off to glass. Then gentle offshore.
Massive cloudbank came in with belting rain and strong onshore.
20 minutes later, gentle breeze again.
By then some of the sets were overhead.
So nearly two hours of vastly differing conditions.

Fun.

And a bit north of my local point.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

I miss that about the North Coast. Sitting waiting for the southerly buster to hit in the sweltering NEster. Then blamo. Getting barrelled in the driving rain. The wave keeping you dry under the lip as you backdoor grinding sections. The air electric with negative ions bouncing around.

Lunchtime. If I was carving it up, definitely. If not it wasn’t me :)

Plenty of them. I often look for imaginary Beanpoles in the line up. There’s two prime candidates at Bondi.
So, no I don’t have a beard and I’m not very fat at the moment after my rounds of recuperation.
Actually lost a couple of kilos over Summer.

Had a flounder on the foamy. Bit of fun after spending half an hour doing circuits of Bronte and Tama to get a park.
