Change of routine for Wolves this morning, as after the exertions of last night's friendly with Bray it was a morning down by the seaside on Portmarnock Beach.
But this was not a trip to the beach of the bucket-and-spade, writing your name in the sand, running in and out of the sea variety.
This was still work. And damned hard work at that.
Several of the squad nursing slight aches and pains such as Darren Potter, Michael Kightly, Freddy Eastwood and Matt Jarvis were 'treated' to a dip in the sea to soothe those weary limbs.
But the way Kightly emerged after his half an hour in the water describing the "freezing water" meant it certainly wasn't one he was hoping to repeat!
Meanwhile the rest of the squad were back doing their running and fitness exercises under the expert guidance of fitness coach Kunle Odetoyinbo.
They did indulge in a fiercely-contested game of beach football, including some skills from Darren Ward which had manager Mick McCarthy describing him as the "Cantona of Crystal Palace."
Keep an eye on the Post & Mail over the next few days for some superb shots of the team in beach action taken by our Mr Murphy.
Meanwhile, it's now 11.40am and there's a copy of the Irish Independent lying untouched outside room 328? Mmm.....

I hope Eastwood does ok but can't help wondering why all the London clubs in the Premiership never signed him.

Hi Paul. Back from Ireland now - just wondering if you published the "Girl fan with Ireland map" photo from the first days training session.

Hi Martin.
Just returned this evening and stumbled upon your msg!
Afraid I haven't yet seen what has or hasn't been used but hope to know more tomorrow when I'm back in office.
Still have your e-mail address and will let you know.
Think you picked the right game to go to - not only four goals but managed to avoid the monsoon!

I really really enjoy this concept, and are already pondering about this sort of thing for the although now (the best ways to improved leverage private connections for on the web dating). The on line dating space is broken. It really is like impersonal shopping, and it is a room that's grossly overdue for a tune up that integrates social connections inside a neat and useful way. Leveraging Facebook to enable many people to play matchmaker, makes a ton of sense. If you have time.Please enter my blog laptop wireless internet access
