No Fins for Burblechaz

But success for others

To Manly once again. The surf report was right. Millpond. You'd expect quantum fluctuations in the air temperature to cause more surf than this. No problem - we'd sensibly left the boards at home today.

Since surfing was out, we had a gentle stroll along to Shelley Beach. People were snorkelling. Aha, we thought. Is there a dive shop in Manly? A moment's googlage, and our destination was in the GPS. Off we toddled, barely delayed by the navigation technology at all.

Helped by a friendly, expert advisor at the excellent dive shop, we were soon equipped for snorkelling. New toys displayed here. Regrettably, they didn't have any fins in my size. Rather than wedge my delicate little tootsies into inappropriate gear, I will be sticking with the bodyboarding fins for the moment. This will give Other People a performance advantage. Ha. We'll see.

And now, the gratuitous cumulonimbus you've all been waiting for:

Storm cloud over sydney harbour Bridge On the down side, we're going to get wet on the way to the pub.
