Thanks Pup and SMH and Mac.
The board's a bit like me, better from a distance, bit rough up close.
But it's from a good local shaper (Peter White) and I have an egg shaped by him, plus i have an 8'1 McT Carver. And they are all yellow 
so I will try to set up a quiver shot later in the week (have just lied on the job app about my photographic ability, so it will be handy to get some practice. ). There's also a 7'2 mid-length but it's brown and green (the choc-mint paddlepop). Oh - and a 10'6 Nalu 666. (Yellow, of course!)
Wave "All the gear and no idea" Length

Do it mate I'll take it to base camp and show the boys like I did on your other reviews
Highlights well I have had a few today.
1. Shared a coffee or two with Macaha and Lacey. Though Lacey drank tea.
2. Saw Lacey's abs. Yep that's right he has abs.
3. Made it to Byron safe and sound.
4. Set up camp.
5. There are waves at the Pass. Only small waves granted but waves just the same.
6. For a week I am trying not to get in the car and surf just out the front.
Yep all highlights for me.
Cheers

i just knew this tea bit was going to come up. i had a flat white coffee first- doesn't that count for something
have a relaxing kick back and surf week ET
Whilst at races yesterday we were debating how much Souths would win by. One of the boys mentioned Josh Dugan as a real danger man. One of the other blokes said what do you mean - you think tampon will have that much influence? I said - tampon? What does that mean? He goes - simple - in for one week out for 3 - 12 blokes spat their beer out in laughter !! And then he goes and gets injured a few hours later. Gold.

Yep good one but an old one . We had a guy at work called that,he was only in for a week or two
A coach of my 17's rugby side was called minibus cause he's half a coach.
Also had a mate called Showbags cause he was full of sh1t.
Another mate had a nickname Penis. It was kind of embarrassing calling out "go penis" when playing footy.
Knew a bloke once who's Nic was "cardboard", when I asked someone was he called cardboard because he has such an expressionless face I was told
" No, it's because he fills all the rust holes on his crappy car with cardboard and then covers it in filler, but now that you mention it, he does have an expressionless face"

Huge thumbs up to the text message I just received,over too Simondo
I am all ears Simondo - although if I was to guess I would say it is because your Tracker has arrived safe and sound and you are stoked with it in the flesh
Yes Ted!
Today's highlight... getting my Tracker!! Then doing a quick video review / overview... followed by a session in head-high point breaks... Winki for the christening!
Uploading the video now.
The Tracker is..... a very beautiful thing!
It's equally as exquisite as my lovely wife!
Macaha thinks I should maybe sleep with the Tracker tonight!

Good for you. Sounds like down the south end a bit, although if it was a nor-easter up the north end. Either way nice work to be able to get out mid-week.
My early mid weeks are almost impossible now. After sitting there for 10 mins, this morning, paddled out at 6am. Bit sketchy. Daylight saving gone soon???
Very happy for you Simondo - they did not muck around getting that board down to you ! Nice service. Will be interested to hear your thoughts on how it goes compared to all of your other dream machines
Too many to mention today.
But let me see.
Two surfs.
Nice bottle of sac blanc just finished.
Coffee at Macs. No not him a different one.
Carbonara pasta with double smoked ham.
Oh yeah, European backpackers. Hubbard Hubbard.

And I got told to get my 666 out of the water at the Pass. I should have known better
Sorry - just had to
Glad you having a good time ET - enjoy yr break. Carbonara is one of all time fav dishes. I always cook a big batch of this this when the missus is away - dinner then break the next day and sometimes lunch as well - its also a great thing to pre make before going camping. You can just heat it up on the camp stove. Love it
Now do not get me started on the European backpackers.
