New Zealand Day 3

I apologise that these are out of order. And they may be revised later, when I discover further back-references. In hindsight I wrote quite a lot, and I’m too lazy and pressed for time currently to properly sort it all out by day. Deciding to present it this way was probably a dumb idea to… Read more

New Zealand Day 5

25th of March, 2007 I’ve just arrived back from our day around Lake Taupo. Funny story, that, actually – when we left the party boat I decided to head straight back to the motel. There’d already been copious amounts of alcohol consumed, and I’d already had my bit of partying, so I figured the most… Read more

I have no excuse; it’s a fair cop – I did indeed not stop. And I realised, as I was sitting there awaiting… Read more

Right, so *now* I’m busy

Well, the moving stuff has begun, which has me running around in circles changing addresses and trying to organise stuff. That combined with on-and-off illness the last week or so (nothing much to worry about; good old stress and dehydration for the most part) took out nearly three whole days. Yay. I had intended to… Read more
