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.

Ever had one of those weeks where you have loads of stuff you need to get done, but despite your "best efforts" time just drizzles on by, and absolutely nothing is achieved? This has been my week, except buying some extremely cheap socks, and falling asleep in front of world cup highlights repeatedly.
Having a lurgy and working till late probably hasn't helped either. I attempted brighten up the site tonight, but after scanning dozens of photos i've discovered that this PC doesn't have the clout to open up the huge tif's that i saved them as, without crashing horribly.
I had a great weekend by the though, climbing a very snowy 'Foggy peak' with Jo & Michael, which gave me a distinct "I don't want to leave NZ in a months time" feeling. After getting back to town I made the mistake of watching the England game with 2 Scots, an Australian and a pub full of Irish people, all doing their best to wind me up. But several beers and a good 1st half performance had me telling anyone that would listen that Emile Heskey was from Leicester, and the shirt that i was wearing was a Leicester city shirt, so there. 2nd half was a bit crap though.
I would write more now, but i'm being pestered by Jacob "The Boy" Cat Biscuits. Who is insisting that i do an "inner child" test, playing Eric Satie MP3s and showing me scary things for sale on Ebay, so writing anything that makes much sense is virtually impossible. I'll just go home, and fall asleep infront of World Cup highlights, again.
