Non stop! That's our city, that's our town.

What is the use of being bored while life ticks by? Most of us don't even realize how fast it moves around here until an outsider puts it into perspective for you. I talked to a friend who was visiting from the country recently, he just couldn't believe the pace and asked me how I live here in Bondi. "ìt's never boring" that was all I could muster in defense.

I'm really surprised at how non-stop the surf has been lately. For this time of year that's definitely a blessing, because spring isn't usually renowned for good waves.

Only a few keen surfers scored 'the early', before a colourful sunrise kicked off the day. It wasn't long, however, before the crowd hit and the mayhem began. Drop-ins, dings and frustration transformed a peaceful lineup into the usual pre-work city session. Thoughts of visiting my friend, in his coastal country town, suddenly took on some extra appeal while I watched the kaos unfold.

Still, that's Bondi, my home town and there is no point whining about it. Get off your bum and get out there. Fight for a few yourself!

Good luck.
