Man, surfing is definitely way harder than it looks. I went out today for my first surf with Taylor and I seriously feel like I’ve been hit by a train now. We were out there for about two hours while I newbed about in the water and looked like an idiot and I tell you, the hardest thing I found was just sitting on the board and turning round ready to paddle for a wave. Standing up is tough too obviously, but just sitting there isn’t exactly easy either. Definitely need to practice a shit load more.
Everything else here in PB is pretty chilled at the minute. Had a fairly random week mind which included spending a day at a golf resort in El Cajon with a couple of the guys from OPM as part of a photoshoot for Revolt Magazine. Good blokes actually, I just made sure I steered clear of any conversation surrounding their music…. No new photos at the minute though, although I’ve been considering buying the Nikon 12/24mm F4 lens for some proper wide-angle action, only now everywhere seems to have sold out. Sod’s law or what?
Oh and Bruce Dickinson > Sharon Osbourne:
“You know, what do I care if I never appear on reality TV? ‘Fucking great, thank you! Can I have it in writing?’ But in her [Sharon Osbourne's] world, that’s really important. In her world, it’s really important what you look like. In her world, facelifts are really important. In my world, I don’t give a fuck. I get old and I get wrinkly. Who gives a shit?”
Reet!

About time you got around to doing some surfing slacker, yeah it is pretty damn tiring!
Lol @ OPM, did you not suggest a song title for their next track, “Heaven is a spine-mini ramp complex with hips, volcanoes and sub-boxes” :/
Saw Rambo yesterday and he’s offered to lend me a board so it looks like I’ll be able to get in a bit more surfing before I come back home. And seriously, OPM are touring Europe soon and they said I should give them a shout if I’m around to see them play in the UK. I know you want backstage.
