Bluddy hell. Pls let us have dates as soon as you can so we can arrange.
Hurrah.
When is Adam back?

Tuesday, February 24, 2004

Ahh, back at work on a Monday morning - I knew there was something I had missed all that time mucking around in miserable New Zealand, all you have is raging floods and floating cows now I understand.

Anyway, whahay, we do at least keep the social/alcohol/debauchery traditions in strong form however, this weekend in Bangor, site of the fish's coming of age bash, complete with lots of people, Jamie trying it on with small Japanese women, Matt massaging furiously and a lot of lollipops. Not to mention me pouring two pints of lager and Matt's vodka and coke down my jeans all with one brief flick of a toe... bloody dice game...

I think everyone had a good time - there was quite a good NZ contingent there, Bev and Ged snogging conspicuously by the bar, Jamie and Matt.

Photos up in the next couple of days.

Embarassing frankly - embarassing...

Outragious suggestion from ole sweedy there.

Yes you can text abroad, whats more, once your texts hit the ten dollar mark, they are free for the rest of the month. What´s more you can broadcast text, that is, text many people abroad at once, like I did everytime I was atop a volcanoe or just jumped from a plane. What´s more I have already hit the ten dollar mark for Feb and there is twelve dolla credito on the phone, so until the end of March, it will cost Annie nothing to text Pete with the following message as much as she wants "Pete has an unhealthy interest in cucumbers and castrol GTX"

There seems to be a tiny problemo receiving them though.
I have had texts from my mum and my sister, but another sister and friend have not been able to send or reply. La Fishy Kat claimed she was unable to send texts from England, but I believe that, when I turned down her sexual advances she got psycho, and the court order stopped telecom conecting her phone to mine.

Hands up anybody going to the white continent next week!

ps, Thanks to Matt unt Mike for leaving messages on mah web site. I have replied to both.



Notably generous of the Bristolian - but you realise you can't text abroad on that don't you my petal?

¡Gracias! Peter - for pointing out the error of my links, should be fixed now

Annie, any outragious text messages from unknown hunks, please pass them on.

Buenos Aires is a great city - it´s fantastic here, and there was even a street party outside my hostel last night to welcome me here. Didn´t quite reach the Auckland 200k standard, but was very nice of them to put it on for me.

I can´t remember if I ever mentioned it, but this time next week, I´ll be in ANTARCTICA.

PS, I just about remember the following conversation, but can´t remember who it was with or how it went exactly, but if you know anything about it, let me know. It went something like this...

other person: You are leaving?
me: Yes, I am going to Antarctica (very unlike me, because I hate talking about it)
other person: I thought your accent was funny!

Who was this person? I want to know because I´ve never been mistaken for an Antarctican before.

blog*spot - blog hosting

Why have you linked to a funeral home?

´Time to say Goodbye´
Thank you everyone for making this weekend better than I could have ever asked for as my last weekend in New Zealand. Inviting 200,000 of my closest friends, the Auckland Fill-her-monic (what´s a ´monic´?) and to put on such a firework display was more than I deserved.
I will miss you all.

I am here in Argentina, got a window seat with a spare seat next to me, so I was sitting pretty on the 10 hour flight. I have however, gone back in time and arrived 2 hours before I took off, which is very strange.

I will try and do emails, but all my news will be on www.abtayler.co.uk

Thank you so much for a great year, and here´s to many more ... Up your bum, don´t tell mum

Love ya

Hi.

Yes, well, despite all the planning in the world, we ended up at that boat and they wouldn't let us in for Waitangi Day - jees. Beautiful irony indeed.

Lots of people came, in their own good time, Seb and Sadie, Ross and Amanda, Jamie, Bev, Sue, Welchy, and myself and the Fish and various other hangers on...

I do recall kind of talking to you guys, although it was much more of a yell down the phone from my part rather than anything more coherent.

No photos yet, but will put them up when we get them back.

Two weeks brings us the Fish 30th, which frankly will be more of the same. I can't say more at this point 'cos its a secret...

Hugs from us all.

I think the comments feature I installed the other day was slowing everything down. Is it faster now? I shall endeavour to change the colour for Bev when I have a moment.

I have a score of 1178.9, but I will try it with the real thing in Antarctica in three weeks time. Must remember to pack the club!

Smack the penguin [steroids version]!!!

Top score 1215. Beat that!

In terms of the delay in loading the page - does the title picture appear and then you wait a bit or is it the whole page that fails to appear? and for how long?

By the way PETER,

You have a problem with clip-ons do ya?

Hello Pete,

Feedback on the new format as requested.....

Tres nice


One tiny problemo, I have tried it on several computers now so I don't think it's the connection, but it can take an age for the page to load, apart from that, I think you need to design things for a livin'
