Finally in London after a bloody long flight and only 2 hours sleep. Only managed to spill one glass of wine on the floor – some pretty crazy turbulence for a while. Also realised about 25 hours into the flight that I had forgotten to pack my boardshorts, or any shorts for that matter! It is cooking in London today as well – blue skies and super hot.
Is great seeing my sister Tessa again – here is a shot just taken of us:

Tom is about half an hour away so looking forward to checking out his van – suspect it is going to be a very cosy 3 weeks for us on his mattress in the back.

Hi Blair
You must be amping for good waves now. Who is Sak? He is funny. Perhaps you could have borrowed a pair of his lycra shorts for the trip? You could have got amongst it like Occy circa 1989. I know Gio was impressed by the look and purchased a pair of billabong neoprene boardies back then. Don’t think they’d fit these days? Long way off but where did you have in mind for the South Pacific surf trip next year?

Good luck in the back of the rascal with Tom. After 3 weeks last month in ireland am still having nightmares. Keep that sleeping bag zipped up tight.
