Title: odd ideas
Post by: Eddypeck on November 15, 2021, 03:56:11 PM
General chat, not car realted, but wanted to say I've put it out there to the family that I want vouchers for surf lessons for Christmas!!!

They've buit the WAVE near me, the site where Bristol Volksfest used to be housed. A man made surf 'bay'.

I used to skateboard as a kid, and Jetski'ed in my mid 20s, never acutally surfed, been riding motorbikes for over 30 years so think I have decent core strength and blance - so how hard can it be?

I'm 47 now and thought wouldn't it be cool if I could surf before I was 50. I've always had it in my head that when the time comes I would retired to the south coast so why not make the most of that idea.

Crazy I know, and probably will never happen.

So what crazy ideas go on inside your head?

Not ‘crazy’ but always hankered to stump up the £2,500 to be a Spitfire fighter jockey and buzz bloody frog fishermen.

Will probably get my hands on a BSA motorcycle by same name before then even if it will cost £8,000 +.
