When you buy another kite knowing that when you tell your wife, you will probably have to sleep in the caravan.

After 2 days, when your allowed back in the house, you walk around punching the air quietly, happy that it was only 2 days.

Married for over 11 years, and I still love my wife. She'll get over it...............I hope.

Then 2 days afterwards, Seriously considering buying another harness off ebay........My bid was seconds too late

Years ago my wife was soo upset that kiting ruled my every thought and action and our relationship was breaking downt due to the fact that i didn't spend enough time with her and showing her how much i love her. This made me sit back and think for a minute 'Its not all about me'.

So sometimes things have to change in your life for longterm happiness!!!

And do you know what? "I dont miss her at all!!!"

When your mood is directly related to the amount of time you are going to spend in the water or have spent already within 5 days.

Plan your morning for that 15 min. squall you just know is going to come through...spend 2.5 hours flying kite, get the squall and are happy for the rest of the day.

wen ur sick as hell, and can't get outta bed let alone do a thing, so u have a sickky, whilst drifting in out out of sleep u begin tio notice the ruffling of the leaves, the ruffling becomes louder and louder and eventually u can't take it any more, leap out of bed grab all ur kite gear, get dressed and sprint down the beach and have one of the best sessions you've had all week. u then crawl back home and into bed stoked that u had the session, then your mum gets home and is questioning why all your gear is in the house and why some of it is wet ooooops swear i didnt go for a kite

when i opened my masters thesis presentation with kitesurfing footage!!! and ended it with a smile cause this girl has style
- the only critique i recieved was "so, how did you get into kitesurfing?"
( i loved it, 18 months of work on this blastid project and they didnt care!) i shoulda spent more time on the water.
re upcoming exams = i beg u, throw any spare luck you have my way.
and then come dec, i shall finally be out on the water again!
