A Windsurf Instructor Reads?

So today has been the last of many days and the first of many more.  So is everyday, come to think about it, but maybe some days more so than others.  I finished the final part of the core section of my course today and am now qualified as a windsurfing instructor.  The strange difference of the reactions in my thoughts between "I've passed" and "I'm a windsurf instructor" is strangely considerable, he second one eliciting much more excitement and the first producing almost no response at all.
We finished about twelve o'clock and most of the people on the course went home immediately, some will be back in a few weeks to work here so it wasn't goodbye forever, but it was still goodbye.  The course was over.  The next course (the next PART of the course for me) starts on Monday.  This gives me Sunday free, YAY!! and I intend to make full use of being allowed the luxury of going to church in the morning tomorrow. 
This afternoon, however, me and a friend went out to Newport.  We had a quick lunch there.  McDonalds, which is a novelty to us, as there is no McDonalds in Cowes.  However I possibly made my first mistake when I went into waterstones.  I happened to see a new book... a book I've been waiting for for quite a while... yes, though it is slightly embarrassing this is the last book for definite in the series (so the cover assures me) i will tell you that the last book in the Alex Rider series is now out and I am the new owner of a copy of it.  As it was in a 3 for 2 offer though I then got two more books... sigh... I had my first proper reading sesh in a long time this afternoon and am now between a quarter and a third of the way through the book. :D :D :D :D i don't think I mentioned (although I might have) that I stayed up till 1-ish the other night reading... ahhhh to be reading again :D :D :D good times. i reckon if i had three straight days off I'd have those three books finished. easy.  however I don't :( :( ah well.. probably for the best...
On the other hand, a windsurf instructor reading? I think I must be quite an unconventional windsurf instructor...
