Last night's of manly music grunge and it was kicking real and awesome with 38 years of talents saying goodbye to the Boatshed. Manly Boatshed you did a great job. Mr Goffee you did great to survive the lockdowns and manly vibe of venues for so long when so many have closed over and over. Well done to the talent that blew the house off for us die hards. 30 years of going to this venue rain or shine has been a blast without fail.

Missing the musicians performing at the Boatshed already. Manly will not be the same without goff music grunge and earthy venues. Manly does not need a monopoly of music businesses it needs alternatives and support to reveal talent. Love the Boatshed from my family from all over the world that felt the depth of music and friendly cheers and pool games and dance offs. Young and old were welcome. Manly do not sell out to the few families that own manly real estate. Music must love not list after dollars of pretentious venues. Love to the independent guys in art, culture. Beg the world of music do not sell the soil and soul of your realness and grunge. Art and culture is not perfect and venues should be the same

Walk through nature to ground and give back to life and mother earth.

Blue rainy smelly day in history or is it just in Australia we see ridiculous arrests and behaviours. Surely we can start the day again and change history with less spray, less mysoginist, less terrorist governments, less bullies in civilisation being left to do their continued BS. Good luck seeing the beauty in the ducks, sunshine in your soul and your neighbours.

Love to those who are the sunshine through whole life or through a season. You know who you are. You are real authentic and open and honest and kind and sometimes you burn with our imperfections ...like the sunshine and weather but you keep shine your light on friendship through the storms, shimmering, suffering and super times. Relentless friendship and family makes your heart sing. Those that drop away were only there for a season and thankfully can go find other reasons for kindness or tickle fickle fantastic relationship release. Fair weather has its place for lessons and leaning and learning.

Sweet life love and licks to realness

Nature and nurture is life in action. Unapologetic and naturally imperfect Nd perfect like humanity

My darling boy turning 18 has been a fabulous festival but also transition turning point..he is stronger and more resilient than a pirate I have ever met. Well done beautiful handsome, smart young man. You are an incredible young man with so much ability, humbleness, sweetness as a friend to many of your mates. I am so glad to have you back from overseas the days are very very long without you in Australia. Good luck to year 12 focus and all the HSC kids. It had been hsc during the toughest years we have had with grandparents passing and family pets dying too. I love you big guy and please remember to dig deep into your morals and the ethics of doing the right thing for your life not anyone else's. People can be kind but they can also be beyond unkind and unreasonable but you have a heart and voice to do your right thing. Heritage and Grandad and grandma would be so so proud of you and loved your every word and time together and all your family love you forever 💖
