Gracie is a 4-year-old desexed female blue English staffy. She has a delightful nature – loves people and children and is friendly to other dogs. She has had an eye removed owing to the neglect of her previous owners but doesn’t let that slow her down! If you can give Gracie a permanent, loving home, please contact Pam on 0421 017 461. Visit friendsofthepound.com to view other dogs and cats looking for a home. Pixie is a very affectionate girl with stunning good looks. Her fluffy tortoiseshell & white fur will require regular brushing which is great because she adores being groomed. Pixie is quite chatty so she’s looking for a home with humans that can understand/learn cat talk. No other cats at home please as she assures us she can teach her new owners to be fluent in cat chat & other cats would simply complicate things.

WILL YOU HELP? Flick needs a van, man! Not this kinda van
Jye Whyatt confirmed he is the best junior longboarder in Australia at last week’s festival. Photo Smith/SNSW Crystal Cylinders
Suffolk Park surfer Jye Whyatt has won dual national titles at the Australian Longboard Titles as part of the Australian Surf Festival. Whyatt executed an exciting array of impressive manoeuvres to dominate the field in both the Junior Longboard and Junior Logger divisions following an action-packed day of surfing in clean 0.7-metre peaks at Cabarita Beach. Whyatt has been in excellent form over the 2017 season and the dual wins confirm his status as the best junior longboarder in Australia. The 2017 Australian Surf Festival also featured a podium finish for Neil Cameron (Byron Bay) who came fourth in the Over-60s shortboard division of the Surfmasters Titles. Max Perrot (Lennox Head) was a quarterfinalist in the Over-50 shortboard division.
International Lennox Head duo Stu Kennedy and Adam Melling have both posted a great result at the Vans US Open of
Surfing QS 10000 at Huntington Beach Pier. The pair finished in equal ninth position gaining 3,700 series points and $4,300 in prizemoney. Both surfers have been languishing down in the ratings ladder with Melling in 64th spot and Kennedy in 203rd spot, and this result will catapult them much higher up the ladder and lay down the foundations for a qualification berth in 2018.
Lennox Classic The Team MP 20th Lennox Longboard Classic 2017 is on this weekend at Lennox Head main beach. This annual longboarding event attracts more than 100 longboarders competing in nine divisions from Juniors U-18, through age divisions up to Over-65, Ladies division and Old Malibu Loggers divisions. Local Lennox Head longboarder Scott Channon will be hoping to back up his Byron Malibu Classic win in the Open nine-footers and Chris Cain (Lennox Head) will be a favourite in the loggers event.

Byron Bay has tightened its grip on a finals berth in the far north coast rugby competition after a 34–6 win against Lennox Head on Saturday. Playing in front of a home crowd on their charity day Byron posted six tries to two, and moved 10 competition points clear of Bangalow, their main rival, to take a place in the top-four and finals rugby. Carlie Read, Ryan Betts, Eddie O’Hare, Dru Baggaley, Troy Wynter and John Laughlin all scored tries for Byron Bay, with a conversion
apiece to James Bulmer and Eddie O’Hare. In the final two games of the regular season Byron play Casuarina and Lismore, clubs sitting on the bottom of the ladder. Bangalow comes off a bye and plays competition heavyweights Ballina next week, and then Southern Cross Uni. Both are must win games if the club is to have a chance of making the top four. The Byron reserve grade Sandcrabs lost 59–19 to Lennox Head, and are in fourth place on the ladder.
