Surf Park Culture # 1 - Not Me!

For those of you lucky enough to have visited Surf Park you may have been exposed to the unique culture that exists between its residents and regular visitors. In a new column to SPAdventures SP Culture will expose and explain this culture to those foreign and give further insight to those who are often bemused by the strange habits when visiting. This week we will start with one of the most basic and quite possibly one of the first rules that existed in Surf Park history when SP formed many, many months ago. It is known as the "Not Me" call. Upon entering SP, the first experience many visitors encounter is a quick and sharp chorus of voices often followed by a long wait for the door to be answered. This phenomenon you are experiencing is the battle of “not me!” in the quest of avoiding having to answer the door.

Idiots SP Culture Guide: “Not Me”

Rules
Last person to call out “Not Me” must answer the door.
If cooking dinner for house mates you are exempt
Early calls before the door bell rings result in disqualification and hence having to answer the door.
Everyone in the house must participate, including blow ins who are unaware of the game.
Disputed calls may be ruled on by residents or replayed upon a second buzz.

Occurance
Many times a day. More prevalent on Friday and Saturday evenings.

Why?
Laziness
In order to keep a prized seat in the house

Other Facts
It is estimated that Toots Le Lay is the worst Not Me’er to who regularly visits SP. If you come to our place, the chances are that you will be greeted at the door by a young lady with a large lung capacity...

Even The Great Man Blogs!

Nathan Hindmarsh, an inductee on to the hallowed Wall of Great Men at Surf Park has obviously been inspired by the efforts of us here at SPAdventures and created his own blog. http://nathanhindmarsh.bigblog.com.au/blog.do


The great man can do it all

So now with his commitment to carrying the Eels on a week to week basis, making 50 tackles, carting the ball hundreds of metres he is now blogging. Doing this of course with his pants half way down his arse.

Long Live the Great Man

Preview - Origin 3

After a few weeks in the shadows of the FIFA World Cup, Origin is once again on the back page pages and lead story on your evening news. It seems an eternity ago that accidenal hero Brett Finch potted one of the finest field goals in league history to lead to Blues to an unexpected victory in game one at Sydneys Telstra Stadium. The boys from SP go absolutely mental at the GUGC Uni bar and smash more piss then the Parramatta Eels then pummelling those in maroon with their running scrums.

Come game two the NSW selectors have forgotten that Finch and Anasta are toilet and neglect the fact that the blues forwards won game one and pick two of the worst halves in origin history for game two. Queensland come out on fire and absolutley smash the blues with Surf Park TV stars leaving the venue well before the game is complete. Thankgod for the Socceroos mania and the maroons victory is virtually swept under the carpet at SP HQ.

Come game three and the members of SP are once again spread over the land (not as bad as last year where we had members in NZ, Cairns, UK, Melbourne) with a few of the boys smashing piss and chicks at uni games on the sunny coast, bah at home on the coast and leary and robbo representing their states at the game in Melbourne. The blues have booted spastics anasta and finch and replaced with Gower and Gaz. Personally I think this is bit a risk as I don’t see Gaz as a 5/8th and we will see Hornby playing a lot of second receiver and possibly even starting the game here. Paul Gallen has been brought in and will added much needed startch where soft cock andrew ryan fell short..The maroons have a mainly unchanged line up and look dangerous with the only changes for kiwi khunt and that wanker hodges who both have done hartlidges replaced by president clinton and wesser. Can cat web aim up once again or has he had his once a series game, I’m tipping a quiet game from him and the maroons bench with Petro leading the way with up front with Price lending a helping hand to stay in the game for the first 20 of each half.

Strentghs
NSW - Forwards, Classy 3/4's
QLD - Halves, Good front row

Weaknesses
NSW - Gaz at 5/8th
QLD - Bench forwards can go missing

Its going to be a tight one ladies and gentlemen, I’m picking the blues by 8 with the ADD Willlie Mason man of the match. Look out melbourne here I come!

Pirate’s Propaganda – G-Dog Da Kiwi is more Aussie then Old Man Robbo

I hereby announce former self pronounced greatest Aussie ever Old Man Robert Brown as the most un-Australia person ever to step foot in Surf Park. Whata? You all say in your best Little John imitation voice. How can this be? There have been many international visitors to the park of surf in its infamous 2 and a half year history. Hell even a bludging canuck and kiwi have called Surf Park their temporary place of residence.

Well all you Little John wannabees the answer is Yeeeah it’s true! In case you have been living under a rock or you reside in Melbourne, there is a little event happening in Germany called the FIFA World Cup. 32 of the best soccer nations meet to compete for the title of the world champions and Australia have qualified for the first time in 32 years.

On Friday morning Australian time the Socceroo’s took on Croatia for the chance to qualify for the round of 16. Surf Park regulars headed to the Prince Albert bar late Thursday evening warming up on 5 hours of pints. Any way as we all know the Aussie pulled off a draw to qualify to the round of 16 and the SP boys drank and sang well into the morning. Mid celebrations we decided to call Robbo to see what he thought of the game, here ladies and gentlemen is where it got ugly. Below is a transcript of the phone call…

Drunk SP Boys: Robbo, how good was that shit!
Robbo: What are you talking about?
SP: The soccer you spastic! We qualified! We’re through!
R: Really? That’s awesome!
SP: Didn’t you watch it you old cunt?
R: No, I gotta go to school. You know us old people need plenty of sleep. Who are we playing?
SP: The I-Tai’s…
R: Italy, ahh fuck… I’m torn!

Now stop right there! How can a man born and raised in Ipswich with no Italian heritage at all be torn over this game? Fair enough he is a fan of the spastic Totti, but how can he even entertaining the thought of cheering on those pasta munching cunts over the great socceroos? We are willing to bet that Musa who is a little dapto dog hasn’t even thought this.

Robbo you are off the list mate, firstly for not getting your wrinkled old ass out of bed to watch the game, then for even thinking of supporting the i-tai’s in such a crucial game. G-Dog the kiwi even was at the PA with us, in an Aussie shirt cheering on the boys! Hang your head in shame Robbo, you are officially the most un-Australian bastard we know.
