Bermuda

After 8 shuper days being shuperbly hosted by Josh X Boston in spring time Bermuda, I have compiled a brief list of the things I will miss about the skinny little island in the middle of the Atlantic:
1. Hanging out with the boys - playing, watching & breathing cricket.
2. Colour. Our arrival into grey Gatwick airport on an overcast London day was a far cry from the turquoise and gold combo of Elbow beach, the pastel coloured houses and undeniably brilliant Bermudan shorts.
3. Taking at least a million catches a day beside and in the Atlantic.
4. Nipping a Callaway sand wedge at the pin at the Fairmont Southampton Golf Club.
5. Dominating the roads on a 50cc scotter.
6. Drinking Dark & Stormy's, Black & Cokes and Rum Swizzles in the sun.
7. The Sandwich and BBQ factory lines at X's place while watching the cricket world cup.
Things I will not miss are:
1. Dropping one catch a day by the Atlantic.
2. Gutting tee shots into the water hazard at the Fairmont Southampton Golf Club.
3. Chickens.
4. Seeing scooter crashes.
5. Having difficulty remembering where you put your scooter keys.
