Gday all,
Sorry for the subject title, but need to speak, still bit shocked
Saturday 3pm, had my first kite in god knows how long at Woodmans point today, managed to get beach 1 all to myself on a Vegas 12. All was going fine, not quite enough wind but having fun.
Noticed two guys, one old (50-60) and one young (20-30) drinking heavinly on the beach half way along the beach, took no notiice (2nd car park?). Remember thinking, typical WA beach goer. drink and stupid.....
Next pass the two were fighting with each other, rolling around on the beach, smashing glass etc..
Then seemed to calm down, not much going on except more drinking..
I was focused on my kite, enjoying myself, seemed rare to have beach one to myself...
Went in to land, got kite to sit down and behave on landing,,, good session..
Thats when all ended.
510pm..
Looked up to car and found one of the two guys hanging round it,, nobody else around,, hoped they would move on... Bloke started looking into windows of car,,tring to get in...
Then made a mistake (by myself),, I yelled out "hey &^$&^% get away from my car",, regret saying that now... came stright for me,, confronted by two guys now, one intent on remaining within two inches of my face, trying to start anything,, other waited back,,, he had cuts on his face,, def not friendly... tried the backpedal,, stil an agro f&ck... every time I lost eye contact with him I thought I'd recieve a stubby to back of head,,,,
said his name was Carl,,,, stocky build, dark hair.... drunk,,
kept going through my gear when my eye was turned, tried to pack up quick as I could,, basturd never was more than two inches away.... I'm ready, but I did not want to fight... the f&cker was wired
got gear packed, and up to car, unlocked and threw everything in the back,, jumped in drivers seat and locked door,,
Started engine, guy was 2 inches from tailgate,, put in reverse,, yelled out of window but he wasnt goin to move,, inhed back two inches slowly, didnt want to hurt a drunked f&ck, even though I wanted to run him down.... Did it again, he hit back of my car with his hand,, managed to get out forwards,, got away..
Carl then threw his remaining beer at my car, I stopped, let it shatter on road in front and drove off,, finger in the air...
Question - I had plenty of opportunity to take him out,, tyre rod in boot etc... But two against one, no chance....
