Yes, it's the very last day of August. I haven't posted anything because right now I have more irons and fires than I have hands, so I'm learning to juggle, which is a pretty steep learning curve when you're managing a succession of potentially hazardous and very hot items.
In South Africa, we don't really have a "buhurt season" as such. We just hang around waiting for someone to announce a tournament. Then we train towards that event. Then afterwards, we have a bit of a break, and then go back into it for the next one.
Except, there's only been one tournament organised in South Africa this year that we haven't hosted.
I'm not going to bore you with tales of how hardly anyone attended the tournament series that we held (once a month over the last six months). We all know that happens. People have many other things to do with their time, after all.
Combat Pit will be finished in October anyway, the final flourish being profight matchups. I thought it would be a nice way to end the series.
Then we head off to Joburg for what has been called the "national championship". Far be it from me to question the validity of a title.
It'll be fun, though. As they say, "it's the only game in town." And of course, if anyone has read the comments in this blog, you will be familiar with my constant reader Traygon, (Jeremy is his name in real life), who is apparently fighting.
Anyway, what with training and work (it is currently marking season for us lecturers), momming and dealing with the myriad tiny details that go into making life work well, there really hasn't been time for much writing at all.
Next month, though, we'll be having our birthday party again. I'll try to find some photos of the Rogues' training to add to this in the mean time.
Have fun. Hit hard.
