have you got a dud? I have, Harold, or I should say I did have a dud.
It was my dads first name and on the odd occasion at school and when I was younger I sometimes was a bit funny about people knowing it.
I was always reminded of the whining way in which the dirty old dad from Steptoe & Son would call out to his son, "aaarollld".
Not anymore of course, anything that honors the memory of my dad is okay by me, beside that, I didn't much like my other 2 names anyway.
So what what bought on this touch of sentimentality and WTF does it have to do with surfing.
Well for no reason whatsoever, I just happened to be passing the time away on Utube watching various surf Vids and I saw that Nat Young's real name is Robert Harold Young.
I've know of the guy for over 45 years and I've never bothered to find out his real name.
My problem now it that for a good portion of those 45 years I have not really been much of a fan, now suddenly I like him if only because we share this funny old fashioned middle name.
He really sticks it up Quiksilver at the end of this vid.
