Thanks for the advice Udo.and re read a lot of the early replies on alcohol..seems most don't do it in excess every day so probably not a problem.
I remember one 41year old psycho alcoholic ego head told me 13 years ago he was the best surfer at supersuck but I saw him surf 2 3-5 foot days in 6 months and he stayed down the end or at another begginer wave similar to Canggu.
My wave of the season was 4 or 5 foot but total over 18 second tube time and he saw it and was making out it was 10 foot.maybe just making up for him earlier pulling his Rambo knife on me and my other pal Byron.

He was my warning of what happens when you turn 40 and keep youthful bad habits like his Alco excessiveness and lack of surfing world class waves with hangover lack of ambition.
Can't believe I missed shark island last week with less than 10 out. Got my car that afternoon too but hightide was 6 am.

Food- lots of Chinese Thai and Italian try to avoid fried rice but love it unless povo.

Cutting down goon, 4 glasses a day with a small pinch of lemonade to lose bitter taste.

Will be going cold turkey soon.

Feel like I've been a Gunna do Gunna do so much..Gunna Rob a bank or write a novel on bank robberies without weapons or injuries...Gunna Gunna Gunna,..but lately every time I log onto chapgpt some undercover parks açcros the street and I get all these unknown USB ports being on my wifi used all of a sudden...by some pi or snitch or undercover.

Nah flew over and sent my car over on a big truck.. worked out cheaper than driving and to tell you the truth I'm more into central coast NSW and south coast NSW and laparouse to Batemans bay coast than south Oz or Esperance coast..Indo or Peru more than anywhere but in Oz I know maybe 90, percent of spots between lapse and potato point.surfed maybe 70 percent of them on good days too.

Also i think it was when i was just leaving west oz maybe a few days later a 12 week swell showed up on margies coast with somewhere offshore with in that coast and no less than 4-5 foot, but i didnt have car any more.They said 28 day wait for car but got here in 20.the day Nathan nathan surfed the best wave ive surfed in oz, my old local..But i m not a local anymore -wrote off bra boys there and got into a few fights as newcomers in around 2003 started dropping in on non pros or guys they didnt know like me when id been surfing it since 1989 and got deeper, knew island inside and out, where to hide from 10-15 foot cleanups, how to pick growers almost everything.
Then one pro i got into beef we made up kind of when he realized i wasn't a kook and offered to bash Koby abs for me.I had no chance but he was nsw champ boxer.
still Koby abs in a monster.

Getting stoned and having a cack at some cartoon like south park is better for you than being a pisshead imo.mainly liver.
Unless you have undsiclosed inner demons some few may have seen signs of.but imo and ive been in some hospital mental health facilities, like 4 times (about 8 ,months all up) and pot imo is way better and less harmfull in what ive seen than things like oxies and cocaine and crack (american crack) not crystal meth which most of the time is pissweak and others its just an ADHD medication. It hasnt been strong since the early 2000's when bikies were in charge of it all and had the right chems. But the comedown was suicide material and fucked people up.worms under peoples skin etc Surfed all day for two days on it though back in 2003 on an epic 6-8 foot cyclone swell at nsw best hollow left..then crashed and last day of swell started to feel bad vibes from the crowd, then remembered i came out of a pit and ran straight over surfer who went over with lip, but forgot...then crashed asleep...but it was the best two days bodyboarding ive ever done.doing moves in the pit and high lining around shockies and foam in the pit...forcing a inside rail back onto the face after punching through a foamy trench, the foam sometimes speeds you up sometimes slows you down..this is my oppinon a bodyboards best ability.but never heard anyone talk about it in mags or anything so its probably a secret to guys like Mike Stewart etc if they do that.Dont think without arms on a surfboard you could force a surfboard rail into the face of a pit....Even though the feeling of a surfboard and speed is way higher.

Funny an old mate seems to get this story mixed up and says he snapped his leash when i did etc and all i remember was he was shitting himself on every good one i called him into.Then tells me he surfed 20 foot boneyards and sometimes calls me a kook.delusional said good bye to him.After he took every vodka red bull i paid for and never shouted me one.

I heard through chinese whispers some guy in the 60's or 70's tried cocaine. lets put 24/7 surveillance on him put 7 helicopters following him around everywhere he goes and since this guy is obviously BETTER THAN US AND SMARTER THAN US because he tried one line of cocaine we better bring lots of ammo and dumb down the community with medication and restrict the awareness that drugs were involved in making all the best music in history...we better not allow this shit and kill anyone who smoked a joint in the 60's!

Im not bad, my mums got bad excema so struggling with that and paying for 5 days a week of some sort of ray treatment, which i suspect is a get rich quick scheme scam by the medical industry.

Im moving soon so looking after the lawns which i just ,mowed, electrical systems and ripping down an old fence which our rich- pretending to be poor neighbors will not chip in for a new one...This outside the house area is too big for my mum to look after solo by her so im not sure if i should stay or move..

Im thinking if i do move, Darwin and when a swell hits Nusa Tengarra islands any spot i know of--do strike missions for hire to the spots i know about..not sure how to advertise without giving away too much info and people just going by themselves...Just one idea..Another is buy dirt cheap land around $4 a square metre and start a super hot chilli farm in an area perfect for super hot chillis.....

A Sydney Psychiatrist charged me over $500 for a 45 minute session so i want out of nsw..West oz doctors are way better.

Got on a bit of eccies first few weeks in syd as they are hard to find in the NW and missed them a lot but then coming down started arguing with my mum and family...staying away from that stuff.

Got a lot of ideas its just im a flake, always thinking of the problems and back away from decent ideas that could be great ideas...

Added a sauna & ice bath to my morning walk routine. Started yesterday doing three rounds of 15 minute sauna then 1 minute ice bath at 7 degrees . I was a sook to start with and only lasted a minute but today made 2 minutes. Really felt it in my feet and ankles. I’m hoping this helps with aching muscles from surfing nearly everyday. Regardless it’s a beautiful outlook and magic spot with killer views . Top two photos from inside the sauna bottom two are the ice bath. IMG-6173

I got one of these el-cheapo ice baths. It gets down to about 10/11 degrees with 3 bags of ice in it. I do 5 minutes in that a probably 3-4 times a week.
Feels good after it, like your bodies charged up and full of energy.
Been doing a few long trail runs lately and it feels good for the muscle soreness after them.
