yep ET she is one happy place around here until Souths start losing then a couple of te boys get a bit wobbly 
TD - I thought the person having the most fun was the person catching the most waves and that is why people like to drop in and take all the good ones On a more pleasant note it was nice to paddle out with out the headgear on this morning !

Wow this is nice. All you people saying good morning and being excited about things.
This is lovely.
Where I normally go everyone is so f...........en serious about things. That is the 666 pages.
I think I might like it here, some humour, some stoke, excitement about the weekend.
On the other side there is so much talk about winning, going faster etc etc it was starting to look like that was more important than enjoying yourself.
I am right aren't I, surfing, the ocean, new boards, it is about enjoying yourself?
Please tell me I am right?ET.
Good morning mister ET ... get a large ripe mango up ya (universal "how ya going" slang in the greenie
)

Yes but Lacey I decided to turnover a new leaf and stop being sarcastic.
Anyway I wouldn't put poo on Mac as I also am fond of the boards that come out of a certain factory starting with M in Byron.
But I certainly do like the easygoing vibe in here.
ET.
Lacey Lacey Lacey,I shack my head
ET,we pump sarcasm in here mate I told you you'll be a good fit around here,nothing too serious until I drop the McTavish word that fires a few up

Do you drink coffee?. what kind of thermos do you have
I am not discussing my coffee habits here.
I might be stupid but I am not an idiot.
I may be new here but I catch on quick.
Personal habits - no comment!

Have headed south cause the weather is really going to pack a **** , so parked up beach front at the place I learned to surf 50odd years ago . Boy has it changed .
So where are you? That car park looks familiar but I just can not place it. Dam it. Hope the weather improves. We had lots of rain on our road trip as well
