Freestyle

It's been a shocker of a last few months. Busy as hell. There's been tonnes of stuff going on but I don't seem to have had the time to update this. The jury is still out on whether I leave a mysterious blogging hole in my past or retrospectively add some posts. Will have a think about that one.

In the meantime, aside from a crappy Christmas Day the weather this week has been gorgeous. Yesterday (the 28th) I caught up with Geoff for lunch in Bondi and had a couple of ciders in Ravesi's (lots of stories from this place over the last week).

Then I headed over to the Olympic pool in North Sydney. I've always been a decent enough swimmer but never particularly strong and could never swim free style for much of a distance. So Gwen offered to give me some coaching as she used to be an instructor. After an hour my technique had improved no end. I think this could become part of my new exercise regime. The running doesn't work in getting rid of the belly. And it's got to go in 2008.

Sat morning now. I have an offer of a night in the Hunter Valley or a day at the beach. So here I am updating my blog and procrastinating. Come on lad, make a decision.
