Bummer about your flat dude.

Bummer about your 7s weekend dude.

Welcome back. It's been lonely here by myself talking to Mad Gerald.....

 

hey SFL good luck in the south island mate

pity about you missing the 7's

still getting the call, the price of Fame mate

so how is everyone doing

weather over here is hot mid to high 30's for the last couple of weeks and even got up to 43 one day

way to hot, maybe time to move back to the rain

 

We're all fine here now. How are you??

 

hot

damm hot

have you seen the weather we are having over here

40 + for 4 days

i want to move home to the cold and rain

i miss it so

 

It feels too hot over here while I'm stressing out trying to organise the move and it's not breaking 30. Suck to be in Auzzie.

Cheers Roff and Farmboy. Yea, the move should be good. Bit gutted about the 7s but oh well, I'm actually passing through Wellington the on 5th, which is when i would have been there normally. funny. So I'll be back in the Red and Black of Canterbury on the 6th.

Ever since I came back to Auckland after uni I said i'd rather live in Chch. Now I am going to be, and not only that but with a new job (new truck included) and most importantly, living with the most amazing woman I've ever met. In the big picture, things couldn't be better, though on a smaller scale everything seems to be going wrong. //sigh//

Saw my Dr today for some signatures for my application for passport and i got blood pressure checked, it was 108/60 hence my blacking out when i stand up from the couch / seat / bed. He said I need more stress to raise it, NO I BLOODY DON'T. haha Mum said if I wasn't as stressed as I am, I'd be dead with no blood pressure at all, lol!

Hey Mark. Sounds like you need a break my friend.

 

yeah bro, have a day off. get some greek recipe and a Blue Duck down you and you'll be fine. hope the move went well.

Went to the MCG tonight and watched the Black Caps destroy the Aussies, that brings warm feelngs to my heart.

and of course, Happy Waitangi Day

 

Missed another raucous sevens mate. Will pit some photos up once i've 'edited' them

 

Well, finally have internet at the flat. All settled in and all my stuff arrives tomorrow so it's gonna be a bit exciting to get things sorted out. The flat's awesome. 50m from the beach, 2mins walk to the pub, 3min drive to the best bakery I've been to. Better pies than Hilliers Pies (JP / Cen). These pies are stunning! Dangerous really.

New job's cruisy and interesting, learning new stuff and might be project managing a few things sortly, so yea. All good down in Chch

 

The seasons are all screwed and mother nature is paying us back! Sounds like a good premise for a movie!

 

Afternoon all. I'm just dropping in as I'm looking to move down there at some point in the near future, (by that I mean this year).

How is every one?

Edit: BTW nice outfit SithForceLord.

 

Video from one of our trips last year

clicky

 

Very nice bro. I've actually got a passport now. Off to Oz this Sunday morning. Boss is picking me up at some ungodly hour and getting back Wed night. Gotta do work Mon / Tue but should get some time in Sun PM and Wed AM to have a look around. Only Sydney but still, nice to get out amongst it finally. Pretty jealous of Alaska / Canada. Robyn and I are really keen on doing an intrepid journey through Borneo... but it might be several months off at least.

 

great video. love the road trip in the snow

 

Maybe....

 

could be, just waiting for it to stop raining and the sun to come out

 

40 degrees is bearable as long as the humidity stays down. Nothing worse than being dripping wet and hot (from a certain point of view ).

Mid to high twenties here in the south of Nu Zilind. Not a bad couple of days actually.
