me, not much- just a lot of walking. get to drive straight up nyd.


so excite me with exotic holiday destinations or if your just hanging out at your local beach


cheers

I'm working on Christmas day Got an 8 day break from Jan 1 . Try an avoid going anywhere during school hols. Sh#tfight. I'm waiting for Autumn and some daytrips south on those windless days when theres waves everywhere and everybody's at work.

Well I/we will have Christmas and NYD off and that's about it champ.I was more than happy to have a early one at home NYE but just received an invite to a mates 50th NYE party,one of those ones where you should go but hell I just want to stay home and hit the early NYD.

I thought this was "What am i doing for Chripsy?"

Me I'm taking two weeks of and heading to our family home on the hill in Albany looking out to sea. Somehow need to fit 2x 10' Sups, 1 x 8' Long board, and 4 x short boards all on the roof of the Prado

Not sure at this stage...looking like Galle - staying in the old fort - or Mirissa for some more hardcore party action - just hoping there will be waves near by . Just realised that was NYRs plans....Xmas looks like an old colonial town Nuwara-Ellya up in the hills. Surf has been crap so going on a leopard safari for a few days then up into the hills. Hope all is well with you all.

Lacey only hanging round for xmas day then were off Taranki here we come, nz champs are on here so I'll get as far away as I can . Now if my memory serves me right you have surfed over there Mr Lacey I'll take some pics if it's any good . Might try and get up to Raglan keen to try the Cruiser out there

a week off work yeeeew.
my son will be up from melbourne, planing on fishing, paddling and and having a few beers with him.
i love chrissy day its a real big family thing for us

Secret Santa by the pool for breakfast, Lunch and the rest of the day floating around Currumbin Creek with my family and sleeping under trees after I ate and drunk too much.

Good break this year, finish up Christmas Eve and not back until the 6th. Wow!


If you're home Mark come on over, we're just at the Townhouse near Throwers. You know the one.

thxs cmc, but will be up with the family. teds sounds the most exciting so far

Not driving the entire day for once, about my first Christmas at home that I can remember... Still, doubt the parents will let me surf xmas day, the whole family will be here so they won't notice I have snuck out!

Merry Christmas,
Tom.

This Sunday is a traditional family Christmas with my side of the family, because we can't all be together on Christmas Day.... too many kids with girlfriends, divorces and other sides that have something else to go to. It will entail a pork roast on the BBQ, a late arvo surf and lots of kids screaming......

Christmas Eve will be with my bride's friends and family for a traditional Deutche Weinachten, complete with Kris Kringle, Lebkuchen, Rhumballen, Vanilla Kipfel, Schnapps, Budjovichy and perhaps even some Roulladen.

Christmas Day, Surfing until Midday with some locals, hopefully OB will make it. Then out to the boat for the rest of the day, night and most of Boxing Day.

Have to work Boxing night, but not for too long, then a week of sailing, surfing and perhaps a short road trip or two to places like Plomer and Old Bar.

New Year's Eve, should see us either on the Harbour for the fireworks, or on Pittwater for their fireworks.

Good to see you appear to be mending well Lacey! (seems funny that name, now my son has a fiancee called Lacey.......)

Mourning my Dear mate Dad .... passed away in my arms at 1.51 pm Perth Time this afternoon



Dad , I cannot tell you how much my heart is breaking apart - and you fought like a tiger to stay with us even as I watched you slipping away , God I will miss you mate but please ask Mum to put the kettle on , I will be with you both up there soon enough ..... I am so lost , I am so alone but I will never ever ever ever forget the best times of my life my beloved big man , THANKYOU so very much for every single thing ...... Love from your Son always ....... Christ I am in a world of hurting and I am bawling my eyes out all over the keyboard here

Pup - I am so sorry for your loss. Feeling for you. Christmas is a time for family and reflection and I am sure your dad is looking down on you right now thinking how proud he is of how you have turned out. Hang in there big boy. Thoughts are with you.

When my dad went, the thing that worried me the most was that I never got the chance to tell him how much he ment to me and how grateful I was to him.

Knowing the sort of person you are pup, I'm sure you never made that mistake, sorry for your loss.

Really sorry to hear your loss pup , your a good man T B

i feel your pain my friend

Pup I'm sorry for your loss mate,reflex on the good times spent as I do mate,your father would be so happy that you spent his last few hours together some of us were unable to do so when the time came.He is no longer in pain,no longer suffering,he is now in a better place to relax and keep and eye on his son who I'm sure he is proud of.

Pup hang in there mate,we are all here for you.

so sorry to hear of your father pup

Sad news Pup, Thoughts are with you mate.

sorry pup, mate every time your spoke of your dad it was with love and respect and we feel your pain brother.
