A Long Sad Weekend

It's official.
There will be no surf this coming long public holiday weekend.
Flat as a lake it will be.


All the wait and anticipation! The bubbling excitement! The crammed work hours just so I can surf like heaven this weekend! Alas alas, Neptune king and the north-east swell! No gift for us this week!

No midnight six-hour drive to destination! No early morning eye rub jumping out of bed! My four days, what am I to do with them? I might just use them to go back to work! Cruel weather! Long has been my wait and now this!

An almost-flat but happier day from a year ago. When you can't choose you take anything.
