So why have I been so quiet?

Well, as you will be well aware, the last time I have posted anything on this blog was on New Years day this year. Well for various reasons, however their are two main reasons. One, I have just plain and simply been slack at continuing with what I had started. The other reaason, however, has a little more substance. At the end of last year there occured some changes within my work environment with my changes jobs and job profiles.

As from 1st of January 2009 I officially started in a new position, working full time within the swimming program at a leading Unversity, a leading club in South Africa and in Africa. During the last few months my time has been spent on re-directing, streamlining (no pun intended), and coaching within the program. Days have been long and we are slowly starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel - hopefully it is not another on-coming train :-).

So over the next period of time, I will try and attempt to put more posts on the blog. Feel free to comment on posts, thoughts etc and hopefully the information I place will stimulate all our thought process and in turn contribute to meaningful thought and discussions on various topics. This blog will give you - hopefully - a snapshot into how my mind works.

God Bless
