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.

Although i may have been a stick in the mud when it came to going to fireworks displays in the past, when I found out that the Grand finale of the 'World championships' of fireworks displays was taking place in Vancouver last night, i couldn't really pass up the chance to go along.
I headed down there with a couple of lads from my room at the Global Village backpackers, who oddly seemed like two younger versions of a certain James Gates - Weezer t-shirts and Hair gel galore. I'm sure JG will be upset by this, but they were actually bigger Weezer fans than him, as their whole trip was arranged around Weezer's recent US tour, where they went to three gigs, as well as getting backstage to meet Rivers Cuomo - hardcore!
