winter??????????????? LIFE IS GOOD!
More sensational weather with the last 3 days of 21- 22° and the rest of the week looking good too! I feel surfed out after more good waves this morning and late yesterday back at the same spot as the photo's that i took last week.Amazing conditions yesrerday just likelast week but with a light offshore breeze that had it groomed perfectly.As good as you could find anywhere in the world.My shoulders ache and i need a few days out of the water.Its so hard to stay away from the beach when the conditions are so good.I've got to get as many waves as i can while i can!Feeling surfed out in winter is surely a good thing.Life is good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Winter update
Its been a great winter for surfers this year with pumping waves virtually the whole winter with just a few slack weeks.Cold,yes,but thats winter herein Europe, with the coldest session last week early one morning at a nippy -7°.It was ok in the water at 13°,but brrrrrrrrr, the change out of the wetsuit in the cold wind wasnt much fun,especially as i couldnt find my gloves!Luckily i have 3wetsuits sso i always have a dry one to climb into- very important.Yesterday i ran along the beach a coupla hundred metres to a pumping solid righthander with Carwyn and we scored some bombs,with just the 2 of us out we could take the pick of them and was fun untili copped a coupla beatings by 2 rogue sets and got washed in-feeling tired and too old for the winter beatings like that!Its going to be too big for the next week,at least so i will try to get as much work done here as possible.I've been working in the garage,converting it into a bedroom.
I've had more allergy problems and the Allergologue(allergy specialiste) cant work out what the problem is and is sending me to someone else-its too hard for her!
Corinne is now working part-time so cash is a bit shorter but she's under less pressure at work so she's much happier about that.
The weather still hasnt been too bad with virtually no rain and light winds.It has been cold but if its clear its kinda easier to deal with winter
I cooked up the mandatory meat pie for Australia day and popped a nice bottle of penfolds-very nice indeed!
