Competent!

Well we're starting to get moving now, we've had the race bibs handed out,
had a bit of a yarn to the rest of the kiwi teams and some acquaintances
from previous races on this side of the ditch. We've been introduced to the
"kayaks" (very definitely in inverted commas) that we'll be paddling, swum
a couple of lengths of the pool, and been deemed competent in first aid and
navigation.

Hah!

Hopefully we won't get to prove the truth in the first aid department.

The smack talk has already started between Orion and BlackHeart. Let's hope
the kiwis come out with the world champs slot at the end of the day!

It's overcast today, but still shorts only weather, here's hoping it stays
reasonably civilised!

Hopefully no-one wants to play table tennis today ... Or tomorrow, when
this table will spend most of the day covered in maps.
