Today we decided to go on a family outing to the beaches, the noobs came a long too.

We went to some park at some beach that didn’t have any shops. What’s the point of going to the beach if you can’t get hot chips????

Anyway we went to some park and Oscar had fun walking around and playing with his aunty and uncle. He spent a lot of time just staring at other people, maybe living on the north shore is bad for him, he looks down on the bogans from the beaches.

I have to admit it was a pretty good park even if there was no hot chip access, but it was a strange park.

At one end of the park was this sign.

As you can see the bottom left shows all the prohibited activities in the park, the bottom right shows all the permitted activities.

It is the second permitted activity that got my attention.

After receiving a low pressure system for his birthday, Little johnny has been complaining to his parents that he has nowhere to play with it. But on a recent trip to the beach his parents found a nice park tucked away from the temptations of hot chips where Johnny could unleash his minor sized natural disasters.

or is minor flooding just a result of lots and lots of little kids in one place?

    I think the yellow diamonds are warning signs of potential hazards or dangers, but I like the idea of “permitted activities” much more.

    the other 3 are playground, bike riding and ball activities.

    is it bad that ‘ball activities’ is causing my immature mind to smirk??

    The ‘minor flooding’ sign also looks a bit like the guy is wearing one massive shoe.

    I prefer minor typhoons myself.

    Perhaps the dangers of “ball activities” depends on the trajectory of the said “ball” and its final target.
