Call me a wuss but I can't wait for Summer.. .. I fell in on our down-winder yesterday and got an ice cream headache.

That sure looks good Dean and I wish it was just down the road from where I live.. You lucky bugger..

always the same pic....

but i never get bored of looking at it.....

Looks nice Dean. I thought the west coast would be going off. I had the board in the car and was tempted to leave the office at lunchtime. From the centre of the city in the middle of the day it only takes about an hour to Torquay...but got caught up and couldn't get away until after 3. By then it was too late for the west coast for me.

Not sure if the swell kicked a bit more late afternoon, because Michael and I went down to Flinders for a really late one, hoping for Big Left. But when we got there a bit before 5pm it was closing out right across the channel. We ended up at Gunnery, but had a pretty good hour in reasonable waves. Got our dozen waves each, so the drive was worth it.

Who's sick of winter?
Not me, that's for sure!

- same pic ?? Well we consistently get SW swell lines over a reef that doesn't change much. But you are welcome to believe it is the same pictures recycled !

A long long time ago I worked in Melbourne, and would find myself staring at the ceiling asking myself "why am I here" whilst day dreaming about waves down the coast. I lasted about 1 year... (This was prior to email and Internet so you couldn't even pretend to look busy!)

A good way to help you through winter is a top dollar wetsuit purchase (or sniff around for a cheap top line suit off season). Also 1 cold and flu tablet with "the real PE" will get you pumped in the surf if the lungs are not 100%.

beam me up there
