Well here we go again.
Again I am unable to make it. Actually I am unable to go anywhere, I am stuck in Barcelona looking after a student who has lost his visa and Health and Safety insist I stay with him as the responsible party!
Sooooo... Sun, beaches, Sangria, a couple of cool museums and galleries for the next week or so until the Embassy can fit him in for an interview. Not a bad stuff up as far as stuff ups go, would prefer to hang out here in 19degrees C than Moscow at 5.
That said, where I really want to be is in Sunshine right now helping prep for the next run. Ahhhh... The hours of driving the dickhead filter to Gairdner letting the business of city life fall away on the roadside. No phones, no Internet, no-one who doesn't understand. In short Heaven. As Talking Heads sang, heaven is a place on earth and I reckon Lake Gairdner must be pretty close to it.
Emus, dragons and red sand, and the odd desert pea. I love her, she is in my blood.
Good luck team SOS as you go to that place, may the Gods of Speed greet you kindly.
Amen
