I have managed it after 16 years...

Post by szrbloke »

I'm moving back to the coast!! :D A place called Wembury near Plymouth in the UK (lived in the UK since 2000, and before that in the Central West of NSW 1993-2000). Its going to be VERY tight financially, and for me and my wife there is a lot to do until we can move, but I'm looking forward to regular surfing at LAST!

:D :D :D
all the best,

Scotty

Good luck with you're new home.

Are you on the British Kneelo forum?

Yes I am, and tonight I'm going to phone up Bro Diplock and discuss a new board. :D
all the best,

Hopefully he's back from Ireland then!

I spoke to him yesterday on his mobile, he'd just got out the water so the phone call was curtailed as he wanted to get changed :D

I love my Diplock board, I've only used it twice so far but it's such a jump forward compared to my old boards.

Shame it's got a few scratches from Lynmouth last Saturday :lol:

Gonna be good to have another kneelo around to keep me company!

RMcKnee, I must have crossed your path at some point. Was probably riding a sponge at the time though :oops: misled youth! I've grown up surfing Challaborough which is still my main haunt along with a few other spots nearby.

Don't think Bro is back until friday, bet he's been barreled off his nut all week! See you guys at the weekend.

Cheers

Thanks mate - will save that call until Saturday night. I've clearly got new board fever, added to which is "house selling blues".
all the best,

Sale of our house just fell through. The bastards. So now it looks a much more dodgy prospect for us. I'll still have to go to work in a little over a weeks time, but with no place to live.
all the best,

Scotty
