Weather report – Portugal…

windy climb

…blustery doesn’t quite cut it when trying to describe the last 24 hours on the west coast of Portugal. To be honest I wouldn’t be surprised to see a cow fly past the window.

Unfortunately this has turned the sea into a seething mass of white angriness reducing my wavecount for the week to single figures. Luckily (?) this will give my recent (courtesy of Ryan Air) sinus hemorrhage time to heal – a fairly disgusting and traumatic ordeal that has somehow diminished my previous love for low-budget airlines.

I didn’t surf today – but I did have time to do a doodle (more at Flickr)

    Don’t you bring your Southernist sensibilities round here Ms Teen – save that for the Old Git. Anyway us way-down-southerners are a different breed altogether…

    Ms Tutt! You understand the consequences of associating with this “Penfold”, ja?

    I am keeping my close eye on you.
