It's been nice to see Eric again on his annual pilgrimage home to Perth. Good times! We boxed and drank beer.
Apparently he's been boxing once a week at a gym in Canberra, but judging by the state of his skills, I'm a bit dubious as to the quality of the coaching at his new "gym".
We did 3 sessions over the past week and already he's starting to show a lot of improvement. We're training at my new house, so it's a different environment to where we used to train at my parents' place. Sparring was lots of fun and I'm a bit out of shape too! After training yesterday, he stayed over and had dinner. Then he said, "I'm having a really strange feeling of deja vu". That really freaked me out, because the last time he said that, he turned out to have amnesia - caused by me punching him during training - and it freaked us out so much that I rushed him to ER! That was 4 years ago!
Thankfully, nothing like that happened yesterday. :)
After he left for Canberra 2 years ago, I started exercising regularly with Su. I used to joke that she was my "new Eric". Now that I'm engaged to her, it's kinda scary thinking about the implications of that statement.....!!
