So here we are - the season in ernest. Full team present? Ay Captain!!
We have had eight TOBYs pass through the SURF EXP so far this year - What??!!! I´m changing my name - Gornall of course doesn´t need to.
For the first time this year we had TURBOT at the Mixed Fish Grill - now this is life changing - double life changing as the SARDINES this year are off the hook. Did I ever tell you that if the sea went flat everyone would be satisfied just by the eating here?? Well, I am.
I love this place.
The Ocean you ask? - it´s wet. Already in June we´ve had a couple of hefty swells come through and my word there´s a few tasty banks out there - super hot!! ..yet not quite as hot as last weekends wave of heat - flipping nora!!
It´s cooled down slightly for us to scrub down the BBQ monster and fire it. This weeks thursday menu reads - Lemon Pork, Spicy Chook, Chouriço , THE Famous Ozzie Rissol, Arroz Verde, Roasted Veggie. Roof terrace, Vinho Verde. You know.
Once again a big thanks to everyone who made it down over the Volcano weeks and just said f**k it if I get stuck. Surf on average this year has been pretty good - long may it prosper.
Oh and a BIG congratulations to MATT and TOBYG for coming 1st and 2nd in their FPS portuguese instructors course. The third guy was blind.
I lie there was 25!!!
Oh and good luck to BRE who´s going to defend his title as the CZECH champion next week.
Surfing is truly the sport of kings - come and join the surf exp royale family..
WORD UP!!
