The house across the road from me is owned by a bloke who makes surf films. He comes here for R & R.

He's been here this week & his house guests are pro surfers, ex pro surfers & members of his crew. None short a quid.

I get home the other day & he has a houseful. The street is filled with new BMW's, a Mercedes, an MG & one had one of those Holden wagons that look like a 4wd (for getting the jet skis in & out of the water)

There was a few of them sitting out the front so I sung out,
"What's wrong with this picture?? How is it the 250 pound biker has a fleet of Kombi's, & the shark f#ckers have got beamers??"

Then the funniest thing happened.
To a man, they asked if they could come over & have a closer look at my fleet.

So here's all these blokes saying how great it would be to cruise to Byron in my 57 without so much as a fuel gauge, when the cheapest of their cars was the 50 grand Holden!

Every one of them at one stage had owned a beetle or kombi.

The answer to my question: Surfy types do own VWs, til they get a quid.
Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.

sinecure Want another... :(

Classic.

"The answer to my question: Surfy types do own VWs, til they get a quid."

Yeah, then they get bored with driving/riding in the same expensive car with a different badge over and over again, and they think:

"You know, I really should buy myself a nice, restored dub, for something different."
A POSSE AD ESSE.

I live in my own little world, but it's okay, they know me here.

Nice enough bunch of blokes though.

I got them going when I asked where the line was drawn between pro surfer & dole bludger, because the two look a lot alike to me.
Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.

After spending 7 years in a town of 600 Dave, Newcastle is plenty big enough.
