So....okay people, much is occurring, I just got back from an impromptu visit to Vancouver Island. Which im afraid to say is as close to paradise I have ever experienced...more to follow when Chelsey gives me the photos.

But for now, I am eating pasta (and my nails) and re-hydrating for the Half Moon Adventure Race this Saturday.

So at 12 noon Mountain Time and 7pm UK time spare a thought for Dan and I (a.k.a Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure Team) as we run, scramble, mountain bike, climb zip, line, kayak and sweat our way across a valley range in the Rockies, for 8 hours!!!!


BE EXCELLENT TO ONE ANOTHER

Oh and as a side note, congratulations for my mate Mike back in Leeds UK for starting his own business, I wish you well (save me a piece of wall and I'll make it lovely)

Graham & Selina Selina go to Mongol Mongolia...


So...Okay so I always have a lot of time for people who are ready for an adventure...

There was a sailing god at my yacht club when i was a kid, Mr Graham Preistley, I think he won the world championships when he was 14 or something ridiculous like that. Anyways, he's all grown up now and he's a teacher, he has a super cool Missus called Selina Selina (also a teacher, we all wish she'd been ours).

Well get this, they just got married, and instead of going somewhere boring like Spain or the BVI's for their honeymoon....they ARE CURRENTLY doing this:

THE MONGOL RALLY

Thats right, there are adventures afoot! Basically a team buys a rubbish old car
they plan a route to Ulaanbaatar Mongolia, they get to Greystone Race Track,
someone waves a flag and then they're off!

How cool is that? Im very pleased about the whole thing, so please follow their progress guys:

Be excellent to one another!
