Welcome to the Greenroom mate.
Just be aware we tend to go off topic a fair bit.
If you follow AFL, you will have plenty to talk about with Tassiedevil, Simondo son, Pup and Mac follows the Suns (poor thing). The rest of us follow NRL as well as Mac who follows any code who play in QLD. Rugby gets a mention on occasions and we are talking a bit of cricket as well.

Welcome aboard cpt.

Yes, SB people do tend towards a bit of agro don't they?

I'm thinking it's because they believe that circus tricks a wiggly bum turns are such a manly testosterone driven thing. Odd really, I would have thought it was more like ballet but without the tutu. Except in the case of Westerly Windena perhaps, I'm sure she could do an excellent job in a Tutu.

And she could go without knickers if she wore a Tutu because she's still pre op, that means she won't stick to the board if she does the splits

Welcome aboard - not sure if you know the rules but we need to see photos of your quiver asap . Hope you getting a few waves on your side of the country...this time last year I had me some beauties down at Lefties...infact tom is the 1 yr anniversary of my mates wedding - we surfed perfect but small Lefties around lunchtime before I managed to fin chop the back of my leg and would have missed the wedding had I not got some backyard surgery in Gracetown! Meant I did not surf the rest of the trip sadly

years.

the Single Fin Classic at Burleigh this weekend,the surf should be pumping
We had dinner at Burleigh last night and some nice waves were rolling down
the point.

banned myself a couple of years back,massive day/night,I just can't handle the

Morning lads,
So I am at buffet breaky this morning waiting for my toast to come through on the toast conveyer thingy and this bloke steps in to grab my toast.
I say "hang on mate I think (know) that's my toast. The bloke is Channel Nine's Ken Sutcliffe and he replies "Are you sure it's yours ?"
I say "Kenneth me boy, note that a corner is missing off both slices of toast".
I explain that I do this to avoid conflict.
He apologises and by all accounts a misunderstanding and a champion bloke he is.
It's amazing how tense it can be around that toaster at buffets.
I posted in Nov my near incident with an arrogant pr1ck at another buffet who stole my toast.

Jeepers Scotty - remind me never to mess with you over the toast! Tell KS to get back to work - does he not know that there is a test match on..............

Hey Mac - sounds like you will have some fun this w/e - Toowny sounds like a good fella - I have always enjoyed his responses / opinions / views. As for DW - well that bloke sounds like he is from yesteryear and the single fin contest will be a perfect fit for him! I think he leads one of the best lifestyles known to mankind

Pup all good mate,even sucked dinner up last night.

Ted yes looking forward to a wave early then hang around the comp always a top event these boys put on,funny thing is these guys take no prisoners in or out of the water,do the wrong thing and you will cop it big time,but they are also a great bunch of guy's and luckily for me I know a couple of the senior guys so that sure can help.

Nice one. Here is a map - its about 2km off the main road - first one on the left after the airport (about 5 mins past) - opposite the Shell Servo if its still there and just before the soccer fields....Its the blue marked spot. Not sure what its called these days but it was "Rochevale Fruits" when we were there. Top spot. Let me know how you get on.

Pup,Ted,Mac,
I could forgive you for thinking I am a trouble maker at these buffets. Truth is I am really relaxed but can sense the tension and potential for 'buffet rage'.

Perhaps people misconstrued my post - I'll leave it at that.
I could count on one hand how many red thumbs I have given in my nearly 2 years I've been on here. If I've got something to say, I will say it.
