Rip curl and quicksiver owners used surf with each other every morning at Torquay . In fact there was no point calling the companies till after 9am

We couldn't afford quicksilver or rip curl or billabong when i was a kid. I was rockin the Catchit range (pronounced cat shit).

Imagine my surprise and delight when I got my first pair of real jeans. Other kids had Levis or Lee. Mum sent me to school in a pair of Tiger Tuff.

Quicksilver ultimately ended up in Targets I think.

2025 is a bloodbath already ...

Just in the 3rd week of January already.

And this time last year everyone was bemoaning the lack of celeb deaths.

Made of tiger skin?

No, made of inferior denim.

Bob Kuban, American musician from St Louis aged 84, founder of 1960s group 'Bob Kuban and the In-Men'. This group in 1965 defied the British Invasion trends at the time by storming to the top of the charts with the catchy song 'The Cheater', but while they had some other successful songs around the mid 1960s 'The Cheater' is by far the best known of their songs today.

Nicholas Eadie is now the second member of the main cast of The Henderson Kids first series from 1985 to have died, following the passing of Ron Challinor at age 80 just two weeks ago. From the second series in 1987 two actors in the main cast - Dean Nottle and Marcus Eyre - have both since died, while some of the actors who played minor characters in a handful of episodes of both series have also passed away over the years.

If I was asked to guess which actor from the first series of The Henderson Kids would be the first to die I wouldn't have picked either Ron Challinor (he was long retired from acting anyway) and Nicholas Eadie. I would have picked in order Peter Whitford (advanced age now close to 90), Paul Smith and Jane Hall (played the jinxed Home and Away character Rebecca Fisher/Nash, also played by the late Belinda Emmett and Megan Connolly who died at 32 and 27 respectively).

Here's his iconic "six flights in a lift" moment from the 1967 GF:



I recall with fondness his single season with the Bulldogs in 1976 – including the EF when he kicked three goals as the Dogs were rolled by – ironically – Geelong.

RIP Ken
