Please list yr ideas here....
Today I was so bored me and the chick headed up to SP country for breaky on Darby Street then did a tour of the tunnels and gun placements at Fort Scatchley, did some shopping and then had a lunch at Caves Beach on the way home. Far from my ideal way to spend a Sunday but got me loads of brownie points.

I have recently purchased myself a new weapon to keep me entertained on flat / windy days but I think I am going to need something else as well. Any ideas? What are you blokes doing? And before you start LL - NO

Just kidding

I worship satin

oops, sorry, I meant satan [}:)] I don't own a 666 so what use would I have for "satin"

Hope that does not qualify as homosexual smut

I emptied my garage,several tip trips a good hose out I now have one tidy garage with a heap of room for more McT's

Its amazing what you don't get done when your surfing every weekend,so I'm kind of happy there's been no waves around,but I'm at the end of my teeter. The new board will be cured so bring so waves please.

Nice bike Ted,I've got a similar bike but its a Felt.

Catching fish on lures and swimming laps. The swimmings boring but you feel good after it.

Nice one there Ted
Here's my weapon of choice.
And still going strong after a Broken collar bone and a Broken shoulder blade



I just scored a roadie a few months back also but haven't uploaded any pics yet.
Heaps to do on flat days now.

Great pics Boof , sounds painful Locky

Ted we have a few kayaks so when there is no surf can still get out on the water for a play .
Good fun to surf in small waves as well , and if you find just paddling to dull chuck in a fishing rod great fun , unless the fish is bigger then the kayak .

Nice looking machine there Locky. That looks a mean machine. Two good down hill tracks near here but I do not have the balls anymore sadly....hard tail is enough for the cross country I do these days.

Tassie - I still have a kayak - its a 5.2m touring beast....got bored of it in recent years and its down at a mates place in Sydney. He has a similar one and it at least gets some use these days. We spent a couple of yrs doing every waterway we could find in and around the Sydney basin but then I discovered the 666 world and it was left behind.

I did not say that exactly but think that there is room for them in the quiver - having said that our ones do not get used anything like they used to.

Have never used one Ted , have to admit have hardly ever seen one , but you could be right I think they could be fun for me on the days where the point breaks are really small .
Was really surprised how expensive the paddles are a cut in half kayak paddle would almost be just as good and a hell of a lot cheaper .

Good to see you back PH..... You've been quiet!

I have two motorcycles, one is under restoration, so it takes some time. I have a longboard skateboard that gets a couple of rims a week, plus a 25 ft yacht that goes out at least one weekend over three. It also requires a minimal amount of upkeep..... Oh, and I just started playing the b.ues harp. Not to mention all the household chores to keep the bride happy when I go surfing, or playing with my other toys.....which you can't have too many of IMO
