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.

We won the the World Club Challenge! Massive upset!
MNM ... amazing result.

Whenever anyone mentions MNM, I think of the beginning of a Jeff Fenech sentence.

The same Fenech quote has entered my mind many times. What I love about our win is that the whole club is normal people with a great sense of community. Beating Snapper and Dbah down there was so good. And we are a bunch of no names with no pros or ex pros.

Based on lifesaver estimates, means the figures are not at all reliable.

Went for a walk on the beach this arvo. Saw this girl rock down with a new midlength. She laid it down, did some stretches and then lay down on it and practised paddling and popping up on the sand. Did it about five times while I walked past then tried to go out. Looking at the surf I reckon that’s about the most she will do.

Here's one of those guardian articles with a twist:

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyl ... fing-waves
I didn't get the twist, but I know of that lass, she's been out on a mate's cray boat a few times there.

I went over there out of Southport one day by boat while I was down over xmas/ny with my nephew and had a dive over it, dead flat day and the bottom looked gnarly as.

What do you expect from The Guardian?
Although Gill has made a career out of covering the "surf life" focussed on wimin in it. Good for her.
More bikinis in the lineup.

belated congrats on the conny win, Jimbo.
I thought you said that you were competing the weekend I'm coming up.

Nick'd take a dimmer view if he were here.
