And you thought the last post was a hoax, well not quite. I’m not posting details of my lovely holiday with my equally lovely partner just yet. As I still haven’t finishing sorting the photos of us. Been working my arse off in incredible heat over here, tomorrow’s forecast is for 38*. Previously, after my holiday but before now, I went to Prato for a day trip. They had a exhibition on sports fabrics, thought it would be a bit different rather than the usual art museums around here. Some of stuff was pretty techie, fabrics that get charged with sweat and draw oxygen into the muscles, solar panel fabrics, knee guards that are soft but become solid if you hit them–I had seen that stuff on Discovery Channel last year, so neat to play with it in person. Haven’t been up to too much else interesting, a lot of work recently and its been too damn hot to do anything anyway. Still running in the mornings around 6.30am when it’s still cool, and hoping to add one session at the pool each weekend. Being talking to my friend Aeisha about going (she’s been a few times already), it’s like $15 a time so def only a once a week thing. That is all for now.

I be will updating this blog soon, I have almost finished sorting the 1200 odd photos from our holiday and will post here in the next week or so.
