Hey-OOOOOO Christchurchians!!!
secrets in chch? doubt it mate yea if its got more north in it i spose taylors will be able to handle how bout lyttleton can any one tell me about it i was gonna mish there if it gets to big any advice??
don't bother. Its a harbour with boats and stuff.
yea figured heard on big swells theres a beachie on the far side near daimond harbour le bons and raupo are a bit far for half day mish
Its nowhere near big enough today. But the week aint over yet

Whoever told you there was a beachie over there was wrong. ![]()
good luck with your rivermouth hunt DB. hows the flooding out your ways? snow to 500m from tonight![]()
Snow to 200 later they say!! Not enough flooding out our ways yet. The wee river that runs past my house is a pretty good indicator of lowland levels, so if it rises significantly, the hunt is on on Sat or Sun.
Good luck with Porters Pass!! Would be good to click in again, but not yet for me.

Had a look at North Brights an hour ago, would be a long paddle (but do-able) and a blind takeoff, but weepingly clean and hollow on peeling banks. Big sets breaking 200m out pushing 5ft, but it looks like there is no drift!! I can't get on it till the weekend though.
turned direct southerly in the last coupla hrs. farken freezing. stoke the fires kids, it's gunna be a cold few days ahead.

Yar that wind is strong aye. I'm sick as a pike so staying dry. I have been to Taylors twice though for a look! Turn of the tide has taken a lot out of scarborough but its still pretty clean. I'm not worried though - looks like lots more of this in the next week.

Hey BP... Didn't watch the game but good on the All Whites for whoopin' the Serbs! Shame they lost to the Aussies to be honest as 1-1 would have been great for their confidence etc... Oh well! ...Not long now! :-)
Also, how good is that Football World Cup Ad on TV... Class!![]()

Mc MoScO ........ " Da' 'REaL (mc) DEaL!*"
great result for the all whites, serbia are like what, 17th in the world? awesome stuff.
