    I remember the couple at the end, they lived in Avalon NSW. This song epitomises what it was like growing up the the 70’s, not a care in the world, no one to impress, just the simple things were enough to keep you happy. It was a great era. Great song.

    We lived in a golden country, with golden beaches, at a golden, carefree time. Now we live in gilded cages, with all mod cons, yet afraid of what time will bring. I cry for those times, but more for younger people, who never knew those times and, in all probability, will never know such times. As stewards, we failed in our duty.

    The 1977 movie "Highway One" was about the surfer lifestyle- filmed like a documentary, focusing on some young guys travelling around surfing. It all seems very realistic until part way through the movie you realise that nobody, cool surfer dudes or herb-tea sipping surfer ladies auxiliary, has anything as inconvenient as rent, bills, jobs, study, or parents to interrupt the fun. I'd love to watch Highway One again, but have never seen any way to acquire a copy, legally or otherwise.

      I saw that movie at the Opera house in the late 70s and have been looking for a copy as well. There was a scene in there at the hall at Broken Head with a heap of mates from Byron Bay watching the movie. A classic Aussie surf movie!

    b) ride a horse without a helmet.
    c)ride a horse bareback

And I sure do miss the good old days!😢😭😔Austalia now has the same thing in common as North Korea we’re having any kind of harmless fun is a crime!😛🤪😡😔😭
