The latest BNB expressions I have overheard:
- Rogered – has it been turned into a Cartoon
- Cup Shaming – anyone seen using a throwaway cup
- Conversation Hijacking – interrupting other people’s conversations and changing the topic
The new White Board has been Rogered ..I thought the cartoon was someone asleep on a bed but it is a sausage sandwich..
The conditions were amazing today EXCEPT it was FREEZING
JP gave us the low down..
Liverpool won last night against Tottenham = JK Happy
Blown in the face by the IRB engine = JK not happy
Sun streaming down
Freezing waves smacking you getting into the water – ugh
but clear clear clear
Then over to the Badge Ceremony
Alex’s sausages nicely lined up; Gary does a great job sausage handling..
Gemma forgot her Keep Cup – ‘cup shaming’
Sausage sandwiches looked delicious
Jim helping out with the sign
Well done Jim
The start of the ceremony – 1000 names to be called out …
I didn’t get photos of everyone and they are in no particular order…
The 2 legends of the Pacific Challenge – John Bond..
and John Forster..
Another Legend – Ken Murphy – His stories of his recent time in the U.S are astounding!!!
2 week old baby Zali who swam in her mum Julie’s tum THE WHOLE WINTER!!!
Stevie also earned his badges coming down most days!
Rainer (Lips) was not able to collect his badges so asked puppy dog to collect them for
him but because Puppy doesn’t have fingers he had trouble…
.. and dropped them on the way home…
Well done to everyone .. and thanks to all the helpers today at the badge ceremony itself – collecting money, giving out badges, calling out names, cooking sausages and to Royal Far West for hosting it for us 🙂

Cup shaming is a particularly nasty form of bullying and won’t be tolerated.

Hey Rainer. I have your badges. Sorry about the delivery slip-up. At least I didn’t step in it.
