Hi All yes after 5 weeks of having to p*e into a bottle while laying on my back I am finally out and back in the sunshine after two small bleeds in the brain and a few staples to put it all back together. No long term disability although a bit slow at some things at the moment, some say
nothing has changed. Merry xmas to all and your extended families and I look forward to catching up soon.

They say that "the competitive strength of a surf club is determined by the depth of the members competing" and that really was the case at WA state titles last weekend at Scarborough beach. RDA coached girls made a big contribution to the Trigg Island surf club win with 21 gold, 18 silver and 16 bronze medals in teams and individual events over the 2 days of competition. Well done girls and we all look forward to you competing at the Australian championships in a few weeks at the same beach. Here is a photo of just some of those fantastic young women who are part of that squad.
