A lovely picture that shows great affection for this tired, battered and rank old building, according to artist Bob Hitchens, who surfed and travelled with the Northy mob from the late 60s. The building shown here, soon to be demolished, is perched above the beach overlooking the main break at North Narrabeen. The two lone roof-racked  cars, a 66 Corolla and EH Holden, bake on the ashphalt as their owners enjoy a few uncharacteristically uncrowded late morning waves.
