I'm out of practice. I forgot to blog yesterday, sorry.
Having said that yesterday was a long, long day, and fairly full, including a sprint-cycle over to Newport to a nonexistent cell group and a slightly more sedate cycle back home shortly afterwards. Getting time to read here is hard, I was up till the early morning on Tuesday reading a new book and I would have done that last night too had I not fallen asleep whilst mentally debating whether to have a small snack.
We've not being doing much personal windsurfing this week, it's all been for the purpose of demonstrating to beginners certain moves and techniques, which is all well and good but it means big boards and small rigs. It's still good fun, but not AS fun as a nice small-ish board and a large rig would be.
There have been late nights too. We ended at 8.30 yesterday, man that was long. Today wasn't so bad, but I ended up staying and watching "The Windsurf Movie" which was being shown. Pretty amazing stuff going on there... one day... in many many many years time maybe I shall be a quarter as good as that...
Learning lots and the assessors are really nice. They are really encouraging and relaxed, but at the same time they get through everything we need to get through.
What's going on the rest of the week?? Well, tomorrow I think we can expect going through everything we've done in the last two days, then child-protection stuff. Then on Saturday we have the actual moderation, which will be good I think. Then I shall or shall not be a windsurf instructor.
Oh, I have finished the book I've been reading, the penultimate book in a series that has had an axe taken to it by the death of its author. They're some of my favourite books from my childhood and I still will read them. I say penultimate because, after a little bit of research, I found out that his last book was actually published this year, I guess it must have been done post-humously (is that the right term, i can't remember ever having to spell it before) obviously it's not post-humouRously. So I will get my hands on that at some point or another.... The one I've just read was actually very good.
hat's all for now I think, I need to work back into getting this blog going properly again. :D Hope you're all well.
