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.

Wotcha! Have been working my arse off in KeriKeri (New Zealands TOP small town) for the last few days.
I started off my career here as a carpenter (sort of), and have now progressed up the career ladder to be a pro Kiwi fruit picker. Kiwi picking sounds glamourous i know, but in fact it's shit. And you have to listen to brain numbing commercial radio all day. Humph.
Hence i'm going back to what i do best soon, being a travelling rambler / dosser, and will head off up to Cape Reinga, and then back towards those rather large volocano things, that are just asking to be climbed :o)
Anyway, must go, as i'm being ripped off for the internet, as per, and Wes my Kiwi picking comrade is waiting for me, to go for a post picking beverage at the Citrus bar, the only local pub that hasn't burnt down. Tata.
