we heart buns (part2)

...the last few details about my easter.  (no church, but still managed to feel very cleansed. )

We were treated to an amazing sunset for ANZAC DAY.  Very fitting.

SNAP happy tourists everywhere. 

US.

some BEACH feet  (winter (almost))

a BEACH pooch  (98% wolf)

yet another BEACH post.

i heart buns. (part1)

easter eleven was comprised of the usual stuff ......had buns, had choclate, had the worlds biggest rockyroad c/of SWELL CAFE in JanJuc, had chums visit, had swell, had some cold feet = had some new booties.  

We also saw the fattest pet in existence.  If you think your gunna fail (suck?) as a parent, then relish in someone's else's shortcomings for a bit.  You will feel better, but not for long.

....BABY BLUE

THIS ENTRY combines Some Dylan lyrics, and Some Faces (that once lived inside a disposable camera.  i'm glad they've moved)

" Strike another match, go start a new

   And its all over now BABY BLUE"

jindy and beyond

Alot of strangeness unfolds in JINDABYNE on a fairly regular basis.  The first 2 pics illustrate just that.  1. A Corolla (known for having good resale values) leaning on a rubbish bin.  

2. Darragh Walsh (invaluable)

A recent stint in Sydney - a cool exhibition, a cool bottle of vino, a cool wolf like animal, and a cool bakery.

This weekend, I took my pooch (Rupert) down to the beach. He has a new friend = Ooh La La. And although he has name envy, they are great chums. (Rupert is the Sausage)
We swum, surfed (a few times), Hung out with great friends (Ben & Liz) - and reaffirmed how a weekend in summer should be spent - family, friends, and getting sideways (surfing!).

12foot bowl. Bring your pads?

The New Skatebowl at BarBeach Newcastle is no joke. 12 feet and f@cken counting. Good job Mark.

Scooter Goobers Beware.

Shredding @yesnowboard 11/12 with @shaunbelmore at Winterpark

First two runs of 2011 happened today. Not sure my legs like me anymore, after the week that was #SIA11. So fun.

Jibberish / Anarchy

Firstly, spell checks can lie.
Secondly, this French phrase was constructed with an online translator. A friend who speaks French assures me it is meaningless Jibberish. I guess I believe him.
- it's meant to read 'And the manic gulls screamed "it's ok", and they believed them'.
I hope the people living in QLD believe them too.

Yup. A rad day for sure.

update

there was also a wedding (congrats luke + megan), a midnight organ fight in the car (congrats Newry Street), and a kebab.  

GOOD weekend. 

nu benchmark

a quik trip down to torquay reiterated how strange some people are.....

example A.   vintage mafia style crap coloured mercedes.
add personalised 'WOMBAT' rear badging and an apocalyptic orange siren+light kit

example B.   smoking a cigarrette while driving.
add rubber gloves

short people taking the tall way

this is a small edit of our recent trip to Sean and Ana's Wedding in Hervey Bay.  We (the idiots) drove there from brisbane - we should have flown.

Timelapse GOPRO - roadtrip! from amine yasmine on Vimeo.

But if we had, then none of this would have happened.  I have mixed feelings about that.

for christmas i have asked santa for more time

(insert guilt ridden apologetic opening statement) so not much time on here lately.  infact, not much time on anywhere really.  i wish there was more to say about it

~ during the above, there have been some moments of good preparation.  but for the others, the Iphone has been handy.  melbourne + summer

it seems uniting has been the theme this year.  thats cool, i thINK weddings are proper ace.  and NIK savic is a pretty cool name.  cool guy.  good night for sure. 

a visit to FRASER island, a sandy bus floor, a hysterical back seat crew.  

note; you don't need shoes.  thongs are very fine

and THIS IS Matty.  he has a hotmail address.  he is learning to swim.  he is the happiest guy ever - and it shows.   I hope one day to look as happy as he does most days.  

coming soon
