| Details | Took the afternoon off to enjoy some Easterlies. Went to CP but too offshore at 1st boatramp, too direct onshore at 2nd boatramp so headed to Willows and wind direction was just right. Rigged up a mostly flat 6.0m as there was 10-14kts and it was looking so sweet!! Got out and the wind had lessened down to 8-10kts. Looked like some more out by Cattle Pt so headed that way. Yup, it was good off the point so foiled there for 30 mins ish and then wind lessened again. That was forcast so I headed towards Jemmy Jones thinking it would turn more Northerly. It didn't and it stayed at about 6-8kts. So I schlogged back to Willows and found that someone had stolen my key fob that I hide under my wheelwell. Very, Very, Very angry!! Called wifey and waited an hour for the 2nd set of keys to get there. Feeling pretty chilly, grabbed keys, put gear in ManVan and went home for a Rye+Gingy to calm me down. Who the F#%& would do that. Nothing was taken from inside my ManVan, phone and wallet both still there. F&$# ME!! If I find out who did this, I will break their freakin' back, after I break all their fingers and toes. Yup, still a bit angry. Pretty fun foiling but too much schloggin' which isn't as good as snoggin! Hoping for some more tomorrow in the AM. Plus need a new hiding spot for my keys. BOBSON OUT!!
