I live in Umina and didnt know until Sunday morning when they mentioned it at Nipper news. My mother who doesnt live on the coast knew before me, she read it in Friday papers.

He wasnt a local. A 17 year old boy from Tassie visiting his grandparents. I caught something in the lines of that he went surfing on his body board which he relied on the arm attachment to keep him close to his board and afloat because he wasnt a very good swimmer ... apparently. The attachment broke or was broken, he obviously got separated from his board and drowned. The board was found at 8.00 by a couple of girls and then his body was found by the lifesavers just after 9.00 am Thursday morning.

Had no idea. I use the carpark to drop the kids off to school.

mine are:

Greatest:

Almost getting into the Windsor Wolves team i trialed for back in March

Getting to the ececutive producer of Aust Idol auditions in May (i thought it was a good achievement for me, i didnt think id get to him :lol: )

Finding a female singer i formed a muck around band with, called Forward Pass in May (i met her from the Aust Idol Auditions)

Finally getting a bloody job in November (that i get paid for, my radio announcing is voulanteer work)

GREATEST
* Being a "TV star"... appearing on Channel 9 a few times at the footy, and also on National Nine News before the Bulldogs prelim final.
* Having a random quote I posted on Panthers Interactive being published in Big League.
* Going to every Panthers game in NSW (and Canberra) this year - 22 in total.
* Finally getting a "real" job.
* Finally getting a car.

NOT SO GREAT
* Losing the prelim final against the Dogs, and to Souths and Melbourne mid year.
* The fact that I am still single.

ok i'll tell u the story :lol:

Well me and one of my friends there, when we were bored we use to open up word and write notes and send off to printers in other rooms. Anyway it was a cold day and i sent "IT'S BLOODY COLD" to the computer room across from me and after that i sent "HELLO GOOD LOOKIN" and the teacher came out and asked who sent them, and my teacher said me cause she saw me write it

So i had to go into the other classroom, the one with the chick i used to perve on all the time and apologise and either say who i thought was good lookin or do 10 push up. I said im not going to say who i think is hot all im going to say is she's here today and i'll go down and do 10 :lol:

So i did up to 8 push ups and one of the girls said "his ass is getting tight" that was it i pissed myself laughing and fell to the floor. I finished the other 2, apologised again and went (not knowing i had a busted lip from falling on my face)

I got into my room and Craig just looked at me and said What the hell did they do to you, then i knew my lip was bleeding.

And for the rest of the semester the girl just kept on laughing at me, even in Bi-Lo where she works she does

OK, so I was bored today, so I went for a drive. To Bathurst.

Sussed out the ground we will be playing our trial against the Knights, Carrington Park. Just like a normal country town ground, with one grandstand and grass everywhere else.

Also fulfilled a childhood dream and drove a few laps of Mt. Panorama. Sure, the speed limit is 60 and I was only driving a Toyota Echo, but I posted a personal best lap time of 6 min 33 sec.

Look out Skaifey... :lol:

was in the back seat when my old man drove around Mt Panorama once in a commodore station wagon. Personally I was a bit scared going round at 60. Don't know how they get round some of those bends at such high speed. Nerves of steel
