Hey ozmacca, nice to have a reply from you. My best boards were made by John, my best one snapped in half in a 3 ft surf at Moonie (unbelievable to have that happen in such a small surf) and I had a beautiful board with a full bottom spray of a barrel in beautiful greeny blue would be worth a fortune if I kept it but John experimented on the bottom curve and concaves and I hated that particular board and sold it. In the 70’s we used to jump of the Catho Pier when the surf was big, don’t think too many people have done it since and a few of those old local boys are dead now. If I can find an old photo of the pier at night fully lit up with a coal ship docked I’ll post it here, those days are long gone now. Good news this morning with Chris Bowen saying our Govt is moving forward with promoting and providing incentives for EV’s here as well as a battery manufacturing plant in QLD. Only other thing I have to say this morning is I lost a lot of sleep last night thinking I might have taken things a bit far teasing
@Nellie17 The truth is perhaps I (and perhaps Wombat) aren’t quite in as much stress as many others here, and I think we both may have a wicked sense of humour and have been having a little too much fun with our jokes (I’m hoping Wombie feels the same way) It’s not nice ganging up on someone even if it’s meant in fun, and my personal opinion is that women should not have to compete against men…. Funny old world today, with women wanting to / or having to compete against men. Men can basically be arseholes, even good ones, and women should be allowed to be softer and feminine, that’s why we like them. So
@Nellie17 I’m very sorry if I took the teasing too far (I think Wombie probably is too!) As BEISHA has said here (and Frank said to me privately) we are all part of the the AVZ family, and bullies aren’t welcome!
