Lanky's Hawaiian Trivia
Those lads at the Chapel St club (Commercial Road end) finally had enough of you @pops?
Good to see you back!!
^I am so confused, but thanks for the welcome.
Still been keeping loose tabs on the forums, but too busy between work & the 2 microgroms to get drawn into the debates...
Apologies @pops, I’ve done it again, sheesh, confusing you with @popsdown !!
Bless me father for I have sinned ….

Radio silence over here, website wouldn't load over here next question comes out Monday!
Have a great weekend !
I am so humbled at winning this prestigeous honour, first time I've won anything since the meat tray at the Port Noarlunga pub in the early 80's.
Keep em coming Lanky.

Nope. Poppa D ain't back. And poor @Pops seems to be forever destined to live in his shadow : (
For more trivia.
Who can name the building in the reflection on the BK photo?
Hahah basesix.
Could be the memorial hall in many a town.
Lanky would know, He's probably asleep.
BTW I posted a comment [seeds helped] directed to you the IheartWOTD thread.
No fuss.
cheers @mattlock, just had a look, I'll give it a proper solid listen over the weekend.. half of adelaide is going to melbs at the end of may for the drones and don walker!
That would be a good show.
Liddiard goes alright. The albumn he did with Spencer is great.
My beloved wife and I were once lucky enough to see Don and His Suave Fucks as part of the Cabaret Festival. They had made a little venue with curtains on the actual stage of the Festival Theatre.
We had a little table with a candle on it and a lovely lady bringing us drinks.
Don was about 4m away and he played my wife's favorite song of his. I thought my heart was going to explode for her.
awesome, that sounds like a sublime memory ..
saw tim rogers do a sorta autobiographical cabaret playlist / sorta tim-needs-a-project-NOW-to-keep-him-on-the-straight-and-narrow stageshow called 7 deadly sins at that festival..
Cool basesix.
I think Kate Ceberano was the festival director, if my memory serves.
Not going to mention the building in the reflection.
I'm not asleep
Heading down the road
Just been surfing ______
Fun waves
Question Monday March 24th:
Which Hawaiian surfer owned this board?
Mark Foo
Correction- wrong wetsuit sponsor, Body Glove was his
Hans Hedeman?
3 part question, what "title" did the surfer win unofficially in 1978?

Unofficial ‘78 rookie of the year?
Hans won the first two events held in S A.
Hans also had half a dozen surfer and surfing covers
Couldn’t think of where else to post this sad news , does swellnet have any other information on this story ? https://www.theinertia.com/surf/reno-abellira-missing-surfing-legend/
I interviewed him, or tried to, for an article in 2017 and something was clearly amiss then.
Hopefully he's getting the care he needs.
Ol' mate Lanky Dean is back in Hawaii. He's been sending through random photos: weird waves, good surfers, guys mowing the lawn in their thongs - all sorts of stuff.
This photo came captioned:
"Who's board is this?"
My response?
"The green gun makes me think of Winton but he never had those sponsors.
"Brock also rode green boards (or had green on them, he was born on St Patrick's day) but he mostly rode for Gotcha.
"Tom Carroll rode for Quik and O'Neill but never at the same time. Doubt he would've ridden Willis bros as he was on Rawson's from a young age.
"Liam rode Willis bros but never those sponsors.
"Dunno, Marvin Foster? Mickey Nielson?"
Wrong. The red buzzer lit up and made the 'buh-bow' sound.
