The last week has been spent lounging around the south of france and soaking up the lovely sunshine each day before the storms came through. It was really nice to see familiar faces from Newcastle and Qld as well as meet some more some folks from other corners of the world. OB even bought along Wasabi who I think I heard is off to Russia next!
The Irish Team blog (http://irish-hg-worlds-2009.blogspot.com/) has had everyone amused and talking during the comp. Well done to Phil and the boys for entertaining us on (and off) line!
Saturday afternoon we went for a swim in a gorge with a roman arch along the road up to Chabre. Thanks to the recent rain and storms the water was a little muddy but still very pleasant and refreshing.
The mountains around here are stunning and I’ll soon upload some of the pics from this week and of the launches (Charbe and Aspre) used during the comp.
Tonight I’m in Frankfurt again and will be on my way to California tomorrow. Woohoo!!

Hi Tinks - It was a genuine pleasure to meet you in Laragne during the HG Worlds. You were great fun to be around, good company and a great sport! I hope we (I!) didn't scandalise you too much with our mad antics and deeply childish fun, but it's not often I'm let off the chain like that out of the sight of those who know me! I hope our paths cross again in the future so that I can make good on the dinner I owe you after that 'incident' when we first met!!
Happy trails,
Phil.
