Caught up with a couple of buddies today

and at least that was successful and enjoyable. I was at the pool in the morning in order to have a swim and was really pi**ed off to see a sign saying that several lanes were closed today (and tomorrow as well) for a 12-hour swimming marathon. Thanks a bunch

Well, as far as business is concerned the month is over

and I will admit that I am not saddened to see the back of February!
Hope that you had a great day today Nic. Lunch with the girls and then hanging out with the family sounds pretty good to me toooooooo

Back in the pool today and it was a struggle

after a few days feeling pretty ordinary with a cold. At least the sun was shining and it was a very pleasant Sunday. Good luck for the coming week- we might need it!

Had a day out with Noel today

and although the bike show was disappointing, we had a good day out. Lucky him, he has a week off, although it will be spent working on a software project. Good luck buddy!

Big Gweilo Eat Fat Duck

which "loosely translated" means that Moose has a day off and Chinese New Year is here  :-) Hope that you guys have a great time together over the weekend- I will be dodging the snow and staying out of the cold here.

I came down with a thud today

after thinking yesterday that I might be getting somewhere with this swimming caper, today I was brought back down to earth  :-) It was a struggle, but at least I did have a reasonable swim and I am keen to get in again during the week and keep at it.
Managed to take a few photos around town again today- some of them are to be found in this gallery. Ready for another busy week after Superbowl Sunday!

Been a little slow on the posting.......

at least February has started off in the right way. Had dinner with a mate from home on Tuesday night which was very enjoyable and washed down with a couple of bottles of Spanish red. Some more bits and pieces during the week and then went to see Henry Rollins do a spoken word show last night. He was in fine form.
Up early this morning and off to do some German tests  :-(. Everything seemed to be OK and I have to wait about 6 weeks for the results so no real stress there.
Afterwards headed into town for a swim- a great moment. The best swim that I have had, by far! For some unknown reason, I felt much more relaxed and comfortable in the water and was perhaps a little slower than before but able to swim considerably longer without tearing myself up. Going back tomorrow to see if it was "just a wind-sprint in the roadrace of life" or if it might be something better
