Over 100 homes and properties were lost in the recent Tasmanian Bushfires and some families lost all their possessions and livelihood. Many people were lucky to escape the ferocious firestorm and communities will take many years to rebuild.

Oldfartsurfers in Tasmanian will be affected by the tragic loss of the Dunally Bakery fires. According to Old Farts Surf Co. Head Honcho, the Mexican, "There was nothing like having a great surf session on the Tasman Peninsular and calling in at the bakery on the way home for my favorite, the steak and peppercorn pie. Compared to the losses and hardship affecting many people this seems trivial, however, it does provide a realistic connection with the disaster". Other bakery favorites were the french vanilla slices, giant size chocolate eclairs or the Dude's favorite, lamingtons. The peninsular is famous for breaks such as Shipsterns bluff, Eaglehawk Neck and Roaring Beach at Nubeena.

When the road to the peninsular eventually opens up to the public the Bakery will be sorely missed by the oldfartsurfers.
