From Capt. Tom...


Hi Paul,

Just got out of the shower after a few pre-breakfast morning slides in Camburi, Brazil.

The mat always generates smiles/smirks (for whatever reasons) and often a little conversation from the local surfers in these parts.

"Ah, made for surfing, from California!? Those guys are always a step ahead."

Reminded me of a bumper sticker I read in Kiwi-land a while ago: "Mat Nerds - so far behind, we´re ahead!"

Hope all is well.

Tom

Well not quite... Paul tweaked my mail a tiny bit and left out the [] bit, but he "got" whatt I was trying to convey.
The bumper sticker said:
"Waiheke - so far behind, we´re ahead"
and I filled in
[Mat Nerds] for "Waiheke"...

Anyway... It still comes close to the truth.
