Well, there's no let up so far in the weather, it's been windy every weekend since Christmas. Hurrah!

I'm still based at Tesco's and a bit of a weekend warrior at the moment. I've met a fun kite crew and I've even been on my first UK downwinder (only about 5km, but fun)

Not much else to report and no photos for now. I do have a competition coming up so watch this space!

Lots of windage again meant that I just had to get down to the beach again. Southend this time for some flat water sessions with the LKS (London Kitesurfing) crew.

Bit of a laugh, 20 knots and a few beers afterwards. Can't argue with that!
Took a few pictures from a pier that runs quite a way out. A nice spectator spot, if a little exposed.

Sorry for being so slack again, here's a quickie of what's been happening.

I'm still working at Tesco, I haven't quite quit this job yet! There's some "exciting" projects coming up (read "hard work") so it should be interesting to see how the UK's #1 online retailer does things. Name dropping? Me? Never.

Kiting is still going on as planned although I'm a bit of a weekend warrior. There's a good crew around though and I've linked up with some good people. Pity that most of them prefer flat water but I'm working on it!

I've joined the trendiest gym I've ever seen, right in the heart of London. It's a boxing/regular gym, that I joined to break up my commute on the way home, and it's right in the heart of Covent Garden. They have a d.j. in there, cool lighting, sport videos everywhere, big screen t.v., lot's of trendy people looking cool (and some of the girls wear makeup) so I'm not sure I'm a perfect fit, but the boxing classes are fun without the usual feeling of being a human punch bag that you get in more serious boxing gyms. Who knows, in 6 months time I could be wearing trendy trainers and a trendy matching top  with a cool haircut. Or maybe not.

Here's some photos of people getting ready for another kiting session. Mmm, looks warm huh? I timed it just right (it stopped raining for 5 minutes)
