Not long ago, at a beach not too far, far away*

*If you recognise the reference in the title - congratulations!  You're also a nerd.

Well, flying in the face of yesterday's post, it then rained hard, I put on shoes, and later even a hoodie.  Then a status update mentioned a few good waves here.  And a few there.  Then, just to rub a bit of salt into those non-surfing related wounds in scratching, zigzag offers up this pic.

To everyone bemoaning lack of waves:  [derisive] hahahahaha

They claim it was yesterday.  Could well have been.  They could well be lying, too.  They do that from time to time, just to throw you off.  I know where it is.  If you're Cape based, you probably do too.  Still, I'm not naming it.

But there's a lesson here:  If you're optimistic, and dialled, you will score more than your whinging mate who only surfs selectively.  Stoke fuels itself.  It's a virtuous circle.

So, I'm counting things to be stoked about now:

1. New GoPro2 has arrived (SD memory card not included)
2. Invitation to a yacht to watch the Volvo Inshore racing on Saturday
3. Wavescape board auction tonight.  Always fun

I'll combine 1 with 2 and put the results up here.

4.  That forecast I was whinging about.  Ja, they changed that.  Wind is taking a long weekend.  Which would be fine, except I was kind of hoping it would huss for the boat race on Sat... nope, just checked again...back to its typical windiness.

4.  I'm going sailing on Saturday and the wind is set to howl.  Yes, please!
5.  Was eyeing out dad's old windsurfers the other day.  Why not?

Shot ZZ and AVG, for the pic.  there is one of those funny circle c things in the corner, but I chatted to him about this sort of plagiarism, and he was pretty cool with it.
