My second go at this awesome downhill race. Not that I was actually going to go all guns blazing downhill, as I was still coming to terms with SPDs, and knowing exactly how nuts part of the course was may have slowed me a little, rather that the pedal to the metal aproach of last year… 42 mins not sure if I was fater than 2004, but this time I didn't stop to take photos. Happy enough.
Blazingly good weather all weekend. Ronja and I shacked up in a wee bach on the edge of Lake Alexandrina. As old school as a bach should be. Forget power, forget hot water, and all your other mod-cons. This was even more grass-roots than my place in St Arnaud all those years ago. Great fun the whole weekend. Even when my car broke down. Even when I realised that I would never be an olympic rower, and if it was up to me I'd still be out on the lake going round and round in circles.

Perhaps it is the summer heat, perhaps it is just an excuse, but updates at /sf/ have been few and far between since Christmas, and I have no one to blame but myself.
I don't expect this to fill in any gaps really. Just touching base. 2005 is proving to be full of surprises. Summer has come along, and is showing off, just when we all expected she had forgotten us. Dust off the barbie, hunt out your flip-flops, squeeze into your boardies because things are beginning to look nice and tanned. And the surf has roared. 10 consecutive days: my arms nearly fell off.
January whizzed by. Or at least I think it did. Work has been the slowest in ages, (picking up now though) maybe I wasn't paying attention. However, I did notice my name in ProDesign, and the designer of Bloomsberry & Co's Bochox dark chocolate. Despite telling them that it was a team effort I suppose I will be OK with that. Grafik Magazine in London also ran with it which nearly blew my socks off: it has been a dream of mine to get in there, and despite it being credited to OOTB (which is what was intended) I get a warm fuzzy nonetheless.
Remind me to do some of my own designs form time to time. actually, if you want to give me a title I might just create one from there...
Smoothfluid clothing is all set to be released in a month or so. I still have to work on swing tags and point of differences, and it won't be threatening any other label as it is a very limited run first off (buggered up the stock required didn't I!). But the design tree will be shaken I hope.
