Another week of pre-Xmas over-indulgence has not dented dry static times - this morning's final was 6m30s again. Big surprise of the week was my reward for providing sterling service throughout 15 years of marriage - Pelizzari's Manual of Freediving - hand delivered by Laura Ashley.
Ninety minutes remain before the taxi picks us up for the first part of our journey to Mombasa. I am greatly pleased that it has been so cold and dark today - it will make me appreciate the warmth and sunshine at the other end, even more. Even the winter birds couldn't be tempted into the back garden today, though we did have a visit from next door's rat. It stood up on its hind legs quite brazenly, looking through our back door window at me.
I'll see that look again in just a day or two. The impeccably mannered troop of Vervet monkeys that live with Ivor at Tiwi beach. Just like garden rat, they have much patience.

The elfs effervescent holiday spirit has just been boosted with some pre flight, pre diving dehydration in the airport bar. A 3hr delay has led to an unfortunate enforced drinking binge. The husband isn't too amused. 15 years of sterling service my arse!
Oh, and the rat, yes well he's a regular visitor and a welcome one too. I hand feed him chocolate coated nuts.
Adios my friends, adios.
