Geepers Spud, looks so close you could paddle across.
I remember living up Melrose and cruising around the bay and wondering if meatworks was on.Have you surfed down there spud?
go away, he hates you but tolerates you

you do a lot of talking for others bc and most people dont like that to much,it's like your mum answering over the top of you in midst conversation .Change your angle it's as boring as A U2 concert.
You certainly are getting better at your grammar. I understood what you said.
funny that.anyways --------- will be epic tomorrow because it was today![]()
u are a U2 concert
If only you knew what has been going down shi7 for brains ,STOP HOUNDING ME (I'VE ALREADY GOT A DOG).Behind the shed's you go for another rimmm job .Good boy.
Awesome experience in the surf yesterday: I'm paddling back out at "Barbwires," a stone's throw north of Trestles, and I hear a loud "pooooffff" then see plenty o'fin.
Instinct and immediate thought: "shark!"...secondary thought of reason: that was the sound of a "blow hole."
Moments later, myself and the 2 other guys on the peak were surrounded by a pod of porpoises. Must have been a dozen of 'em. Man, were they big and thankfully they were playful. They were close enough to touch and stuck around for about 10 minutes or so, playing in the waves and fully takin' over.

Yeah, I've surfed in Kaiks a number of times. I usually get a surf down there on my way down the South Island. I've never had it epic though.

jelly, I am your 'terms and conditions'.
Grlncrl, that moment of initial identification is a heartbeater, aye!!
We mostly just see the wee fellers down in the South Island, Grlncrl - the local Hectors Dolphins are really small, with a rounded dorsal fin. Curious, but not really playful like your ones!
Just a tip for adopting the local vernacular - I've not really heard anyone call them 'porpoises' in NZ.
when will it go sw in christchurch on sunday? any takers??

Thanks, DB. We don't say porpoises much here either. Don't know what came over me!

Some days it truly takes your breath away. How's this for a sunset. This is the true colour. I have done nothing to this image.

This is looking east from my place. Wellington is completely surrounded by mountains.

The North Island's pretty beautiful but it's the South Island that takes the cake.
Here is a surf spot on the other side of these mountains. Perhaps only 30km away.

This is the view looking east in winter. The mirror lake in the other shot is the Tasman Glacier terminal lake. You can stay in a great hotel just down the road at the Hermitage Mt.Cook. It's quite good value for money during the winter. If you don't visit this place before you leave NZ I will personally track you down and kick your 4ss! ![]()

Stop soiling this perfectly good thread with NI pictures dirty spud.
Taylors was fair pumping yesterday afternoon, took a drive out and some good 4 foot sets. Looks to have dropped right off though. See you lads for the solstice dawny tomorrow?

Good old winter. Good conditions and no crowd. I ditched the hood but far out the duck diving on the first paddle out was murder.
Right. Mrs db has insisted I get over it and join you crazy bstards for the solstice tradition tomorrow morning, as I will apparently be unfleepinbearable later in the week if I haven't had a surf. So I will be there sometime shortly after 7... In the rain... and howling SW... Good times.
Yeah! good on ya.
Nice work DB.
