A happy-go-lucky English rambler dude goes to New Zealand for a year. Here he interfaces with some of those he left behind and details his nefarious activities. Or summat.

Seeing my parents for the first time in 4 months later this week, who are over for a 2 week holiday in NZ, visiting Alison (My sister) & me, before heading to Sydney (Nice timing) and then off to LA & Vegas Baby, Vegas!
Not sure what we'll all be doing yet, but it'll be nice to have the whole family back together again, for a short while. Though after Mum & Dad leave, it's only a few days till Alison is also deserting NZ, leaving little ol' me stranded alone on the wrong side of the world - eek!
Fear not though, as yet more visitors from the UK are arriving in February - Sanjay! My old Birstall / School chum, who is doing a whirlwind tour of the planet earth, like most people seem to be doing these days.
At this rate, i doubt i'll spend any time abroad without friends from home to keep me company, but there a couple of empty spots left in my itinerary that are left unaccounted for: March - June/July in NZ, then 2 weeks in Aussie, 1 week in Fiji, 1 week in Hawaii and 4 weeks in Canada. Tickets for the "Ted World Tour" are selling fast, so if you want to accompany me on any of the available sections of my trip, please apply now :op
