I'm still learning to skateboard but thought I'd push the "board" out a little bit today and teach myself to OLLIE for the first time ever. This is a relatively "basic" skill that the pros make look like a walk in the park. Nonetheless I had fun attempting the OLLIE and am pretty sure I succeeded in doing one proper one... 

If you're like me and have never tried skateboarding before and really like the look of it, this video might help those interested to learn. In this video I basically go through exactly how I started and the progress after one day.

Today I was doing more painting and made a bit of an error...

Today I learned how to stop the boiler from leaking...

It's very expensive to get a haircut in the french riviera but I managed to find somewhere for significantly cheaper...

There is a reason why we paint the bilges, despite them never really being seen by anyone.
