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)

I just read Teds thread I wasn't feeling too bad till then every were I been has been dead flat infact the highlight of the trip has been finding the worlds best fish&chips at Manganui in the far north (if you want argue that one O B best you come and try them ) we sat and eat them with it pissing down out sit . apart from the beginning the hole trip has been like that . I went and had a look at the surfline factory was very imprest .Roger says he talks to Bob a bit they have a lot of similar ideas 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 .

morning....about to hit the local - will be first surf at home for 2 weeks - excited - wind is offshore and looks to be 2 to 3 feet on the buoys - water should be warmer as well

I got up looked outside, looked online and they were saying nnw, which isn't quite offshore, was about to go back to bed saw you post and decided id go anyway... And was rewarded with 2-3 ft of before work bliss. How warm was it this morning. And did I mention the surf was good...

I am not discussing my coffee habits here.

Those winds are offshore here Glad you got some fun ones. It did not have a lot of push and was pretty quiet between sets but it was very enjoyable......I also managed to sneak a quick hour in this arvo. Stoked!

Good morning TB sure looks like a lovely spot.

Why has a'll The texts and stuff gone mental on here?

Sorry Chrispy that could be my fault.
My wife has always said that I am f...........en mental!
