Once again, I'm writing a day later. I got up at 4:30am to watch the Champions League final, which was definitely worth it! I started off wanting Chelsea to loose, but after they equalised on 88 minutes and it went to penalties etc I was stoked to see them win. I had to work the morning shift, 6am-12, which was sweet as I spent till about 8am watching the football. The rest of the shift was very uneventful and I finished at lunch as usual. In the afternoon I j...

This morning was a nightmare - I had the early shift to work (which normally is one of the best ones) and it went a bit pea shaped. Instead of getting up at 6am I had to get up at 5:15am, to go an pick up a client from a bus stop, and bring them to camp. I got there early and waited..and waited...and waited. By 6:20am they were 35 minutes late and hadn't appeared, so I just came back to camp, and had got up early for no reason. At 7:30am I am then asked by Tom -...

So yesterday was my first full day off since I started working as a Grom, hence why I got on it the night before with everyone else. I woke up about 6am, still merrily drunk.. I got up about 6:30am and went to see some of the academy who were in just the same state as I was. After discussing the night before at some length, we got some breakfast about 8:30am. Once again at breakfast we discussed the happenings of the night before, which was truly hilarious! Af...

I had the afternoon shift at work again today, so was able to have a bit of a lay in again. I got up at 8:30am as usual, got breakfast and chatted to Tom and Rick. I went for a surf at 9:15am, which turned out to be the best surf I had for a while. I was in the water for about 2.5 hours, and although it was only about 3-4ft and clean for an hour, it was well worth it. Unfortunately having not surfed good waves for what felt like forever, I was a bit rusty. I got...

Well, I forgot to write yesterday's blog, but I don't think anything overly interesting happened, so I am going to miss it and do today's instead. Unfortunately yet again, nothing overly interesting happened. The swell was obviously just a big joke as we Havnt seen any surf improvement, it's still 1/2ft max and only good to mess around on a foamie. I worked from 6am-12 today which made a nice change from all the afternoons I have been doing. It was another beau...
