Or an emmit, a dubber, a pasty or any of the other mildly derogatory names coastal folk use for tourists? Few of us British and Irish surfers have the luxury of living by the beach. Unlike those lucky buggers in Durban, Sydney and Los Angeles our main population centres are inland; we live away from the ocean. If we are lucky enough to live by the sea (def: tidal salty water) then it’s somewhere the waves aren’t (e.g London or Dublin). So surfing, for a lot of us, is not in our blood, we aren’t all locals somewhere.

It's no secret I'm a bit of a tech geek. I love the increasing ease of modern life...
As a music buff having music with me has always been important and to go from a Sony Walkman and a box of cassette tapes, to a portable (but shite) CD player and onto a pretty frickin awesome MiniDisc player over the years was a necessary evil. The invention of the iPod (debuted Oct 23rd 2001, capacity 5GB!) ended that arms race. Physical media from that point was doomed. The logical conclusion to this journey happened a few months ago when I boxed up 100s of CDs (well, flogged alot of recent ones on eBay) and took 'em down the charity shop. Tapes and vinyl went in the recycling bin for some lucky punter to find. My music library now lives on a 60GB old school classic iPod and on me 500GB back up drive.
Which is kind of nuts...
