Hey thanks! :thankyou

Team Australia are really excited about this. Not only has the team size doubled to 2, we have an even bigger flag than last year's WC and we have tshirts too! I think that's everything we need for a world championship. Training? hmmm maybe should have done some of that too..... :t

There should be a ton of DeeperBlue people there so best of luck to all - can't wait to meet some new faces and see the usual suspects again.

We've booked in on an excursion this sunday called Chocolate, Beer and Fairytales - sounds brilliant. Anyone else doing it?

Cheerio,
Ben

Yes, so are we. Plus the Monday excursion to that pretty looking lake and the caves. Official training? Nah, we are here for the chocolate and the beer! And very nice chocolate too, if it was what we sampled at MAD CUP in March.
 
ok ok ok.... i'm getting embarrassed now.... change subject :o

Christophe - yeah i'm averaging 1 expensive russian mono per comp now... that's a painful statistic!

Roger - once we get some aussie comps up and running we'll never get you out of the pool!

Nat - i'll do a model of the shirts just for you mate :D

Vodka Elf - I met your Polish cousin last weekend.... you are all evil :yack

Fergus - it's chocolate and beer, not chocolate beer... though that concept does make me a bit weak at the knees. And due to logistics the chocolate and beer must be consumed before the comp starts :D

Andy - that's the spirit mate - no retreat no surrender!

Bit of static tonight, lazy day tomorrow at work then catching the 6:30am flight to Austria Sat morning... have to be up by 3am so still tossing up whether to sleep at all on Friday night!

See you in Slovenia!
 
Cool Eva, will be great to have some familiar faces on the tour! Pen is doing the Monday tour too, i'm doing the judges course so can't go... dope! Actually while i'm slaving away Pen is doing the Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday excursions! Dammit maybe I should teach her to freedive and I can go see the fun stuff...

We're arriving at 13:40 I think, we have a 14:00 transfer so it could be a bit tight. It's myself, Pen and the UK team (Livvy Philip) on that flight.

Cheerio,
Ben
 
Good Luck Ben and Liv - when the lactic starts to bite, think of Richmond.

Livvy - if your DYNNF is going the same way as as your CWTNF, then another UK men's record could be in threat....

Benny - just do another pair of stonking PB's like you did the last 2 nights, and it's job done mate.
