Stoked to get a call from the car repairer today, looks like covered by warranty!! After the trip we had to get to Bondi, that certainly makes us feel better. RACV have covered towing, taxi, hire car and a fair bit of accom costs for two nights.  smile

If it wasn’t covered by Warranty, im sure you could just charge it out to Boardworld…  LOL

Yeh this week has been nothing but good feelings and complete and utter fan boy stokeness!

Got to meet and help interview some childhood heroes on the Weds, then spent 2 days chilling out and doing absolutely nothing with the girl down at my caravan down the coast. And had the single best meal and red wine of my life at Rick Stein @ Bannisters. Then spent yesterday with K2, Azz & Tambo getting sunburnt and watching some of the best skaters on the planet tear the bowl up.

Life is good right now…

How damn good is the food there! We ate there a couple years ago and it was just phenomenal!

Today: Canada won the hockey, Heat beat the Bulls, Tony Hawk tagged us on Instagram, and our BOWL-A-RAMA edit got onto Shock Mansion. Not a bad day.

Oh and I’m getting married tomorrow in the Bahamas.

Stoked for you Rider, enjoy the day you only get one if you do it right!

In other news I was in my storage space on Friday and my scales were right there so out of interest I jumped on them and to my complete surprise for the first time since I was 31 I was under 100kgs.  Not exactly sure what to put it down to, I have been drinking a lot and doing very little in the way of traditional cardio, I have been doing “cardio” of sorts quite regularly but only managed one or two SUP’s a week and a few surfs.  I haven’t been eating as much which I’m sure helps but what I have been eating hasn’t exactly been super clean!

I have been enjoying a lot of that cardio as well lately.

Its good stuff LOL

Yesterday mum tells me I need to get the Territory ready for trade in. I say “oh, ok, for when?”, “Tomorrow” WTF

So I smashed out a quick evacuation of all my stuff, gave it solid vacuum and a wipe down of the interior (did nothing to the exterior) before heading to the dealer today.

They gave us a few grand more than expected and it has about $3k of repairs needed - but the salesman only quoted $1k.
On monday mum picks up a new Tarago and I get handed her 2011 Captiva.

And by the end of next week I should have my68VW as well.
