Kevin Brennan. Fifty years dead.

Bloke rings me up a few weeks ago, says he’s Angus Fontaine and he’s writing an article for the Guardian and wants to talk about Kevin Brennan, being fifty years since he died. Bit of a memory test there but the longer we talked about Head the more came to mind.
The article was published today, here.

King of the surf

Keep your Tom Curran, Kelly Slater, Midget, Bobby Brown, Nat, Mick Dooley, all those fabulous heroes of the surf .. they amount to nothing when we acknowledge not only the master of the surf, but master of the nation that surfs .. in fact the many nations that surf.

And he’s a natural. Plus he seems to be a good bloke, despite being a Pom.

some men..

Some men sleep with their wives, their girlfriends and other men have other sleeping arrangements , but don’t be inflamed with base desires, because we, the surfers of our generation know that of all who wish to share our bed there is only one who really counts.

To be continued and there might be some residual pain ..

Clooney to replace Biden

Rumour has it that George Clooney may well be pressed to replace Joe Biden as the Democratic Party’s nomination to oppose Donald Trump in the November elections.

I couldn’t agree more, and would like to recommend they do so, however, as as a warning I suggest they take some care in choosing their man. Nevertheless, I am available.
