Fresh out of the greenhouse.....

Love the look of those 'fresh out of the greenhouse' boards. Reminds me of a board game - Garden Lotto.
With 'natural' artwork on the board it can only encourage a natural style of surfing? You are what you eat! Remenber those seventies rainbows and those eighties plate and rivetts?
Surfing is looking increasingly natural and soulfull which is reflected by Tubefarm. As an East Coast UK organic wave farmer I shall look forward to many seasons of fresh produce.

Garden fresh.
Harry did the art while in the UK.
I remember those armour plated boards well.
Japanese rising sun was a popular motif too.
I really liked the beer towel boardbags that a few guys had at the time.

Was the corderoy boardbag anything to do with corderoy to the horizon?

The candlewick bedspread was my personal introduction to the boardbag.

Very nice.
Board bag/sleeping bag combo was useful for emergency campouts, wallet under your pillow, legrope on - Peniche style.

WARNING!
Do not attempt the boardbag / sleeping bag combo and load onto roof-rack of vehicle if rain is forecast! Peniche and most parts of Europe can get cold at night and rain soaked sleeping bag hinders sleep pattern. Makes the dawn patrol Atlantic seem like bath water though once hyperthermia has set in.

Fresh Veg on the Farm! Noice.

Harry has certainly done a beautiful job on those boards. Anything on long boards?

On the board bag/bleeping slag/bin bag combo: UK shores in the marram grass instead Fresh V?

Funky Fresh V - it was the hombre with the shotgun guarding the campsite all night that freaked me out.

Jojo - don't think Harry did any logs, but nice work indeed.

Maram grass makes soft bedding.
Rabbits ears flashbacks of el droopo hombre mustache.
I reckon it takes a few nights to get used to sleeping out under the stars. Either that or 2nd or 3rd night exhaustion set in!

Or a cask of cheapo vino.

Unknown said...

or, a rabbit in the hole and bare foot, of course...

Sardines in cool oil usually goes well with cheep vino and once the worst is over and the coma sets in that morning sun burn can be a cruel way to wake. Rabbit in the at Sutton on the also helps.

Wouldn't be so bad if you didn't get wizzed on while you were passed out in the bushes.
