$20 for a surf mag? Jesus...

Is that so you have something to read whilst having your blonde tips re done at the local salon? (being careful not to spill your soy frappacino on it).

Sounds like the latest hipster must-have to me!

thanks trev sometimes i go so long feeling incapable of writing anything pretty or interesting that it comes as a bit of a shock when a story comes out and someones says that's alright. smnmntll's remark made me remember a place in thirroul dad took us sometimes when i was nine or ten, the flying duck cafe so named i think because of the owners' fascination with those flying duck decorations your grandma had hanging on the wall and they had a fair few sets of these flying ducks hanging on the wall in this cafe, a nice place, friendly people, even sarsparilla on the menu. makes me wonder how they'll decorate the white horses office maybe with a few porcelain statuettes on the bookcase.

Such a publication would be a perfect companion for my usual morning ablution exorcism.

But before I bestow such privilege to such a humble publication I would like to know why would you call it White Horses?

Such a name conjures up images of onshore conditions fit only for kite surfers and sailboarders

Your high wire twitchiness is getting the better of you again kk.

Go back a page to read Gra's explanation of the name.

If I’m gonna sell a magazine on fast sports cars and I pass a chook pen everyday I’m not gonna call it ‘The Chook House” .

I’m gonna call it it’ Fast F-cking cars’ or ‘Zoom’ or ‘Catch me If you Can’ or ‘Kiss my Ar-e’

I guess at the end of the day the proof is in the tasting.

I have to get my head around reading again...does it have a lot of pictures and an old Tracks style letter section ?
