Southampton Boatshow

So a few more things done now since the last update.  As follows :

1. MacBook Air has arrived - currently messing with it to get it all up to date with all of my music copied over
2. Waterproof holdall arrived and have also test run it on the bike last weekend - more on that later
3. Sailing waterproofs ordered.  xxxl needed to fit and by anyone's account that is twice the material used to make a large suit but at the same price
4. Insurance is done.
5. Money (US and NZ dollars) has arrived.

I'm running out of ideas now of what is left. There has to be a point where I just need to stop.  The remaining items are nice to have bits so not panicking about them at all.

Anyway last weekend has a dry run of the camera and the bags on the bike to Southampton for the 2012 Boat Show.  I have thoroughly seen enough Yachts to know I have seen enough in one day and also had a short spin out on the worlds fastest Yacht - the Whitbread 60 Monohull.  All is shown on my latest you tube vid, well I'll add that as soon as I have it edited down to something watchable - lookout soon...

I could also be feeling a lot better at the mo - something has got to me over the last few days.  The weekend jaunt to the south has tired me out for sure and am now back to a busy job.  Sadly the feeling of satisfaction with a job well done has somewhat been overtaken by the tiredness and a busy work life again.

Somewhere / somehow I need to get on with the holiday and settle in / wind down.  And worry about the shock of coming back to the real world when I am 50+

Ah well, nearly there - 31 days and counting...

Speak soon
