As a kid I saw that and had no idea what it was... and obviously didn't dare ask my parents anything involving the "S word"

I still don't know what it is though I assume it's just for when you want to give your big board a good waxing before getting it wet...

Maybe next year you'll get some Sex Wax?

Unless he surfs, wax off. Someone with more time can have the credit for the joke....

I've never been to Newquay or knew they had the shop but there's been one in St. Ives since the late 80s at least... as a little kids we went there every year on holiday to stay in a beach-front apartment and I always wanted a shirt but was always fobbed off.

My wife got me a T-shirt for my birthday this year after we toured Cornwall last summer and I mentioned it!

Fat Willy's Surf Shack, Newquay, Cornwall.

Stickers displaying the above generally as a complement to the furry dice hanging from the rear view mirror of any Ford Cortina/Escort/Capri back in the day.

Did the place even exist?

Yes it did. Been there, got the t-shirt

Well, there were at least two; one at the bottom of the manor car park ramp, opposite corner of the crossroads and the other was up near the harbour.

Just had a look - the first one I mentioned is still there:

Saw this this morning and thought of you guys

Does that not work with modern cars for some reason then (obviously excluding electric or automatic vehicles)?

None of ours are newer than 1999 but they would all bump if necessary.

Dunno, last car I did it on was a B reg metro!

Bump starting cars.
