Since starting SUP recently I can't stay off seabreeze forums and buy and sell. I've barely started but am loving it so much I can't stop thinking about how I might go on this board, that board or the other board. Got my wife's mobile phone bill today. Nearly $500 bucks thanks to calling her family in US. Sorry.... I just thought telling the world would make me feel better about it. It doesn't....

Can feel your pain Ericson. My SUP savings went to pram and cot savings the minute I found out my wife was expecting. Awesome news yes and wouldnt change it but now I have to sell one of my shortboards and my tri bike to get some pennies together for a SUP. The buy and sell section on the breeze is such a tease haha

we are up to four now (kids not sups, although you wonder if it wouldn't be better the other way around). I would love nothing more than to buy a board "for her" but four kids means two parents no concurrent SUP time. It's skype for sure from now on and doggie my last shortboard was about $500 (maybe 6 but sounds more dramatic if I say i could have bought a new board with her phone bill).

I use Engin.. I pay $20 a month and I get unlimited calls to landlines to the Uk and France, I'm deadset sure it includes the US as well.
It's cheaper than Skype for phone calls.

www. whirlpool.com.au is a good place to start when it comes to comparing internet and voip services.
