Tradie Tom and the little Yellow Dinghy

Tom has lived by the seaside all his life and has a good bunch of mates who, from an early age, have loved to catch up, have a yarn (chat) and go for a surf on the waves.

Now they are all grown up and Tom has become the local handyman in the town of Sandy Shore where he is affectionately known as ‘Tradie Tom’. His best friend Barney is the town gardener and they can usually be seen working together whilst getting the young ones of the town out of the scrapes they themselves used to get into.

Their surfboards are always strapped to the back of their utes as “you never know when the surf will be up” is their motto.

These stories are about mateship. These two surfing mates by knowing each other for so long can work together, have trust and loyalty in each other, which in turn helps others when needed.
