Whoever it was had better make amends. We have been watching system after system after system slip past with nothing, or hit the north coast on the only days that absolutely everyone has to work.

Another very promising weekend has just gone to poo.

There is clearly intent in this - Huey is evidently peeved. I don't want to rake over the coals of who did what, to whom, and when. I just want this sorted out - clearly we need a sacrifice.

I am thinking someone old and useless but I just can't come up with any names - any ideas?

Its been a little light....cant argue with that.....but this idea that we should start sacrificing the elderly.....well that would require a committee to sort out or at least some sort of quasi judicial body....and probably lots of paperwork....and a fire permit....not that I have given it any thought.

Light winds are good for some folks...this Tasmanian body boarding video is super cool.

I'm still a young fella ya can't blame me............ however............summer down South was one if the windiest ever or so they say.............. They also told me as soon as I took the cast off my leg the wind would stop......... sh.t that's exactly what happened apart from one day at low head it's barely hit 10 knots........... So one could ague that it's all my fault but like I said I'm a young fella so I'm off the hook.......... maybe it's Greenie as all the piss and wind that exhausts from his gob when he attempts a loop (note attempts) has used up Huey's quota of wind for the season......... So Greenie if you just shut up and looped instead of ranting and raving Huey might just let a bit more wind out of the bag.

Bloody egg farmer!! Well with all the wind on its way, seems Huey has forgiven who ever created this drought. North coast will be pumping all week!! And as for you little angry egg farmer, go lay an egg!!!!

Could explain a lot !

Interesting that no one has suggested sacrificing a Virgin instead... Realists I guess.

You may tease an old man all you want that's quiet OK with me I'm at peace with god. I would love to get back into looping but the specialist said I'll find it difficult sailing until my prosthesis arrives..........can't spell..........anyway to shorten this story they cut my bloody leg off.......he said maybe you guys pulled my leg once too often.

Now I've got that out of the way can we trust you to give us the right forecast so we hit Bell Buoy on the right day!!

Bell buoy is overrated! Especially when it's over 35 knots! Way too choppy and out of control.

Bakers is the place to be if the swell gets up. Down the line fun! Otherwise East beach off the point

I tend to agree with Mitch. Bell Buoy can be choppy in W-NW. Bakers is definatly worth the trip. Either way it's still good fun. East is also good when Bell Buoy is out of control. Well We'll just have to see what the week brings Ant sorry we pulled your other one a little hard!! See you up here sometime this week perhaps

I'll get there around 1pm hopefully it hits 60-70 in the arvo but I guess I'll be on my own as you guys will be running home to sail in your bath (together) with the rubber duckie.

Depending on the rain I will sail Greens either morning or afternoon ... at this stage looks more like it will be afternoon ....

Is it going to be East beach Wednesday,Thursday,Friday? Then possible Bell bouy sat when the wind settles below 40 knts?

I can only imagine bell buoy would be out of control with this forecast.
