Re: Just general surfing stuff

Murphoyres I think I vaguely remember. Main farming families I knew were Pritchards, Juliuses of course, Stainlays who were some of my surf buddies and the Hawkies Transport Business. I wasn’t really up with the rugger buggers and farming dudes. Some of the crew at the beach had fathers who worked ...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Never heard it called Foysters Reef. Cudgen RZ and Dilliginghams ran the sand mining. Not saying these dudes weren’t involved but never heard of them.
On further research…here you go. Must have moved up in the world by the time I got there.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

:lol: Plus you had to be a bonafide traveller to get a drink on a Sunday. So everyone would get in their car and drive somewhere.
How crazy was that. Caba Pub was really popular.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

That’s the way it was, boo. Spent a bit of time in my parents car outside the Tugun pub. On a Sunday mostly. Pubs were only open for a short while. Yep, I remember telling a few young work colleagues that. Totally did their head in. Friday arvo I’d get chucked in the Murwillumbah Municipal Pool rai...

Re: Just general surfing stuff

1969….we used to go for Sunday drives up to the Gold Coast to look at the new canal developments and stuff. Early September my parents had taken me to Kirra Zoo and then hit the Twin Towns Services Club. As per usual kids were left in the car to entertain themselves. Might get a packet of Smiths Cri...

I would recommend getting someone to stick a peeled stick of ginger up your date.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

Similar when we were in China. Queuing for train tickets if someone had to catch a train that was leaving everyone would let them through. Everyone was very friendly to us travelling with a couple of kids.

Re: Just general surfing stuff
