Dearest Kat,

OF COURSE I'm going to make you sit through a slide show, boring people is what I do best, it's a gift I was born with.
I will also re-tell the same old stories (only slightly more exaggerated each time), until you beg for mercy or fall in to a coma.

Have you caught up with "Tricky Vicky Licky Sticky Dicky" yet?

I go to Mendoza on Wednesday, wine capitol of Argentina. I will crack open a bottle for you all whilst there.

Vicky, I think, is now somewhere here in the country, although she hasn't made contact yet....Vicky Vicky where are you???

Anyway, Fish and I went skiing, and apart from Fish bitching about having to drink too much (I kid you not!), a great time was had by all. I even managed to get Fish off piste, down a red run and parallel turning by the end of the week through my own sensei-esque abilities....

Our diminuitive blond friend mr hot chicken is coming to stay at le hotel Baldwin on Monday, the latest in a long succession of NZ visitors.

Am suitably excited by imminent arrival of lots of people.

but if I have to look at another bloody picture of ice bergs........

Hugs - Pete

Hello me babbers, ow'bis?

Tis back from a tres chilly big white place, not too sure if you knew, but I´ve been to Antarctica (don't like to mention though).
I am indeedy back in late June IF I can change my ticket. Having BIG problems with the airline over here!
Thanks for all the birthday messages and emails, I am working through the pile now and should reply soon(ish) if you have sent me an email.
Big hugs to Kat and big hugs to Annie March is Birthday Bonanza.

My sister finally dropped her sprog, she had a massive 9lb2oz chubster boy that she has called Connor Jay. (not Adam!)
Mother and wrinkly spew machine doing very well.

I can confirm the following:
There really isn't much of a gay scene in Antarctica.
Penguins do walk funny
Seals bite
Penguins shit in VAST amounts all over the place
Seals stink
Ice is cold
I did a naked swim in the Antarctic Ocean, I now have two ice cubes and a ice pole, frost bite is not nice.
Big waves and small boats do not mix
If you kick a penguin on ice they slide quite far

Any Antarctic questions not answered above please feel free to ask.

Love to all
All way a pleasure, Never a chore
