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.

Dropped off the world's only globe-trotting, dub-reggae and Wong Kar-Wai loving, school care-taking, barmy-army member at the airport today. Matt, who i went to the 1st Test match with, and who encouragingly ran off when the whole stand started singing Proclaimers' songs at me ("I didn't want to steal your limeight", he later claimed).
He was intending to stay in NZ for another 6 months, but has now realised that the streets of NZ aren't paved with gold, and so is off back to his cushy school caretakers job (In an 8 hour day he claimed his only duty was to unlock & lock a few doors, before settling back to watch whatever cricket is on TV).
