The court heard that as police patrolling the area approached Goodall he put his pants on his lap to cover his genitals.

Magistrate James Blanch heard Goodall, a pensioner from Bribie Island, had suffered a stroke two-and-a-half years ago which had affected his speech and memory.

“No one wants to look at you,” Magistrate Blanch said.

“That poor girl, having to put up with you carrying on like a d*ckhead.

“I suggest you stay off the beaches unless you’ve got clothes on.

“Keep your pants on.”
