That Cow Bommie red was really not the thing to scoff before going out for the second wave of the day....
I sent a message to Lynda, OB's wife. Saying that we took a photo with his board, drank a toast of his favourite red and paddled out to say a few words, have a prayer from Bazz and leave a pair of boardies on the bottom at his favourite break. She responded saying "That's so lovely, I was just telling the kids (his daughters) how wonderful you've been (meaning the SBers here), he was so lucky to have such great mates"
So thanks lads, from Lynda, to all those who turned up at drinks and dinner on Friday, two brilliant sessions on Saturday and the toast to OB, and the final surf on Sunday morning. It was a blast and my mate Mick who's not on the forum yet, may just join now that he's seen what all the fuss is about.
Sunday morning for me wasn't too bad, spent a white out the back chatting with Ron Goddard about the 12 footer he was on. Then I dropped in on him - kinda - he wasn't going to make the close out anyway, well at least that's what he said when I said thanks for not calling me off.... ----- well, that's my story and I'm going to stick to it....

V, where are my photos!
