SWEET 25

Well i have officially entered the mid 20´s bracket by turning 25 last Saturday. The family kindly rung (they didn´t last year and i was in melbourne) to wish me happy birthday and to tel me that i was looking too skinny...Thanks mum and yes i am trying to eat more!

For the night we hit the local bar chespas, i know, shit name then headed to a local costa teguise party to the early hours of the morning. Thinking everyone would be speaking full on spanish with bugger all english at the party, i was pleasantly surprised that pretty much everyone spoke english (tourist town) and to make it better, i was the only aussie there and pretty much on the whole island.

On the other side of things, i have been working pretty hard for the last couple of days. It gets crazy at our windsuring resort with about 40 customers out on the water during the afternoon. That means there are 40 fooking rigs to de-rig and store away in the centre. And who´s the gimp who does that...hmmmm. Lets just say i have put on and taken off enough booms for a life time of windsurfing. My silky soft hands are also feeling it to as i am constantly pulling on ropes all day and yes i know you were all thinking of something else i could be pulling (with those who have their minds in the gutter).

The accomadation side of things sucks a bit at the moment. The place i am suppose to move into has been delayed to the end of July. So at the moment the only accom we could find was this apartment that is currently being built! All it has is a bed, toilet, basin and a crappy old fridge. The Gov said i could rent of for free if i do a wee bit of grouting here and there but me grouting skills are not one to boast about.

The positive thing is the apartment i am moving into to is totally cool. It has a full ocean view and the dude i will be living with is a english dj...i.e. the house is totally decked out with all the latest electronic hardware. Most of it is probably off the back of a truck but fook i couldn´t care less. His name is oggy and he has just split up with his misses and he seems like a good right of fun.

What else...ummm, yes i know you are all wanting pictures of the big birthday and Lanzorate but the only internet cafe only has windows 98 which doesn´t recongnise my camera so be patient.

Well heading back to squat in my apartment. Good thing is if you don´t go out, i get to bed early as there is absolutely nothing to do and as its forecasted to blow 30 knots tomorrow with swell, so a good nights sleep will be just the thing. And i have tomorrow off as well.

Stoked Dude!

P.S Keep those comments coming.
