So I will.
About 2 weeks ago I took my sister and her hubbie climbing and after they were done, they reckoned that their two daughters might get a kick out of it. So I arranged to bring them to the climbing centre in Dingle because coincidentally that would be the nearest one to them at [...]

Dragged my sorry ass out to the swimming pool today. It was hard searching out the motivation to do so and I don’t know why that is. Still tired after the last day I guess.
It’s on days like that though…that things somehow go right.
Lifeguard minimum swimming standard is the ability to do 400m in under [...]

I haven’t paid much attention to the Formula 1 of late because it’s a long time since I got sick of Bernie Ecclestone and Max Mosley concentrating, so it seemed, on the commercial aspects of Formula 1 and less on the fact that it’s supposed to be a sport. But because of twitter, it impinged [...]

During the week I took my last diving lesson. I sort of knew it was going to be the last one but wanted to give it one shot before making the decision. People who suffered me through work on Thursday are quite relieved both on their account and mine than I won’t be Misery Personified [...]

Obviously this was totally unexpected, and they were scheduled for 1 November, except, there was a minor glitch in that the weather did not cooperate. We rescheduled for 15 November which coincidentally, also happens to be my birthday. If you’re reading this on [...]

Yesterday was a write off. I started diving classes on Wednesday. I am fully aware that this can qualify me as “crazy” or “insane” depending on your point of view.
Lesson one involved jumping into the 5m deep water. Off the side of the pool and off the springboard and if you were feeling particularly brave [...]

This is me. The person that someone at home calls “into extreme kinda stuff” because well, if there’s something out there I want to try, I wind up trying it. The person that someone at work really admires because “you’ve great get up and go” and the person, all the same, who occasionally terrifies the [...]

In searching for a non-depressing item of news on the web (look, I’m not motivated to look too hard), I found this. Was published on Tuesday. I’m not normally looking at the travel section of that website, can’t work out why (oh wait…).
Anyway, the article is suitably enthusiastic. For those who do not want to [...]
