Live Baby Live

February 4, 20222

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain. I see it driving nails into the souls on the tree of pain. Curl up and hide. Instead I shuffle to cabbage tree bay to revive. The worst days are actually the best days. Maybe it’s the pixie dust….I can smell the weekend.

Rising seas so I decide to see what all the FFF fun is about. Freshwater Fast Fives. Freshwater Surf Life Saving club, Five ins and outs in 30 minutes, more fun than fast.

The camaraderie is amazing. Trooper stirs us up, line up, go.

Cam’s Smoothfm tribute to Glen Wheatley for the boomers out there, in the immortal words of INXS “Live baby live”, lets go again.

I got a new sensation. Mm, perfect moments. That’s so impossible to refuse

All perfect light and promises

There’s nothing better we could do, than live forever

Hayley and the girls, gave us a rant about real-estate agents before leading us off for another lap.

Chris the master plumber, pumps those legs, who knows a thing or two about water flow, beat everyone by jumping in the rip, uses his express skills to the back.

For those who want to try the FFF, 6.30am Fridays. Not sure where you get the fancy budgies, but Trooper would be your man.

Off to Shelley, flat water it was like a bath. We were on a mission – to find the turtle

Gary the groper is really a pixie. He told me that you just missed the turtle. 6.15am damn. Also he told me he’s never really seen Guy at the point??

The bay was full of fish! But the more fish you saw, the more lice said hello!

Old wives gossiping away under a rock. I wonder what their husbands do? Sit outside a cafe on a plastic chair, sipping espresso. The classic Italian man.

Drinksy said something here. It got a cheer so I think it was important. Today is the day I beat them to the point. Wishful thinking.

Fiona and Zig Zag enjoy their apres swim coffees.

Two of the fastest swimmers going around. Stickman and his faster brother Drinksy! Already raised $14,000 for Careflight, well done legends. Just picked out a pair myself.
