A few old photos

Newcastle has a few favourite sons – MR, The Chief, Joey, Hoyo, Sam Egan,etc – but  everybody’s favourite Newcastle identity is this bloke – Super Hubert.  Internationally acclaimed magician, super hero, entertainer, comic and all round nice bloke, who still finds time to make kids and adults laugh and amaze them with his tricks and antics. Super puts on a show for my son’s 6th birthday party 1994.

A country coastal dirt road may lead you to an uncrowded wave. If it didnt,  it was nice to look around anyway and maybe just have a swim. Somewhere up the  coast around Coffs Harbour 1978.
