A bit more ink…

…in a bit more skin. I must say there were parts of my session yesterday that made me doubt the joy of the whole tattoo experience. Some of the shading with the 8 needle gun were beyond the pain threshold that I’m comfortable with. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger – apparently. What wazzock [...]

I would have bought this jacket…

…but some things just don’t need to be said… I didn’t surf today. My mind was on other things…

Notice.

It is prohibited to sell/consume alcoholic drinks: *Kids less than 16 years old; *People with apparent psychological disturbances. So if you’re barking mad and under 16 you don’t stand a chance getting a beer in this establishment. So hop it tiny nutter! I didn’t surf today.

Some level of aptitude in one or more building trades (for example – a central heating engineer would score very highly). Artistic and musical inclination beneficial but not completely necessary. A total lack of ‘hormonal clock’ [...]

Busman’s holiday…

It must be said that this week has been fine on the surfing front and to top it off every morning I’ve had the pleasure of laying concrete for the new shower block at Ollies campsite. I love a bit of concrete… Almagreira campsite has a communal thing going on – people get to stay [...]

Yesterday I went really fast….

…a lot. We checked every nook and cranny of the coast from Almagreira to Praia Areia Branca hence the photos of beaches and gulls at Flickr. South of Peniche was lumpy with no power – Supertubos was like a duck pond on a very flat village green (being sheltered by Peniche from the northwest swell) [...]
