One more night, give me just, one more night, one more night blah blah blah..We all know the song and we probably all know that the song isn't about heading north to film permit. But that is exactly where we will find ourselves tomorrow morning. It's not all burning tape and waving wands though. This time we will sit down with Geoff and Simon and have a good long chat about what goes down up, down and around when they are out chasing these fish. As-well as taking some time to sit on the beach or around the pool and drink a woobler or two. Of course we will spend some time chasing the things aswell. Just in-case we can add to the footage we already have.

Jooooooordaaaaaaaan. The number 23 man. That guy gots game. In attempt to lift my own, I've been getting grip with these number fours (thanks to to the dog...woof). Run, ride, jump these kicks will get it done. They are pretty much the best shoes ever....Besides threes....they look radical!

Two weeks, just over actually, until we are back in action filming what will hopefully evolve into the last piece of the permit puzzle. Six days we have to burn the film of images of permit behaving in ways that will make us smile...if you can smile with your jaw on the ground and drool pooling around your feet...

We will sit down with Geoff and Simon and have a good chat about running after, stalking down and zipping around after these prized fish...and then probably spend some time around the pool drinking..... inbetween dinner catching trips.

I haven't seen Drift yet and (with Heads or Tails being a self-produced venture) I can't afford to buy a copy. So, I will probably watch Geoff's copy a million times while trying to ignore the impact of my wife's fists to my crutchual region.

Simon Penn. He is un-employed and bumming on the north coast. He also manages to find himself securely embedded in the Heads or Tails project. We learnt the following on out last filming trip.

Casting into the wind sucks, especially when there is a camera guy standing in the wrong spot on the boat.

Lapell mics break for no aparent reason when he wears them...luckily it was just after he landed a fish.

You should go fishing from the shore for tailing permit rather than staying at home.

We also learnt he is a nice guy...Awwwwwww..hugs.
