Hi guy's.
I know it's vain, but I just wanted to show off a little. I got an editors choice award for a photograph I published online. In'ni-good!
Hope you like!

Hello all.
Just back from the Galapagos Islands (wow, what a place!!!)and back in good ole (don't cry for me) Argentina.
This is the city where I arrived (Buenos Aires) and the city for which I leave for dear old inglaterra, in two weeks.
Apart from a few side trips (one being Uraguay) that's it for me!
I just want to leave you with this this little story though....
Tonight in my hostel I was quietly reading in the lounge when a guy burst in and said, "come on mate, they got the England game on in the living room". If I had known I would have locked myself in my room, but, not wishing to expalin to a room full of new people that I hate football, I fained interest and watched the game. Then a beer was thrust in my hands, again, not wishing to offend, I forced it down.
I ask you, who do they think I am, BEER AND FOOTBALL, I'm not one of those outragious hetro's you know!!!
I feel so dirty!
PS, That's no way to win a game!

I would like to be AskingMcCavity, did it provide anyone who was up for anything?

Warning - If its on the internet, people may find it.

Note to self - best place to be when losing football to France. Not Ireland.

Slightly happier now though since Sweden have just thrashed Bulgaria 5-0...

Laaarrrssson. Laaarrrsssoooon.

Just had a loverly weekend in Dublin with Jamie, Paul Hatt and Angus.

Really reaaly reealy warm. on the beach in Dublin today!

P

Fee Fi Fo Fum, I smell the Blood of some englishmen!!!

Nuff Said, nuff Said.... Hehe

And thank you Matt for taking the bait, I knew I could count on you..

Itchy feet aye??? 'Twould be a pleasure to see you down here again, especially with your winter coming!!!! Sounds cold it does..

Much love to you all,
a very smugg wee Kiwi

Wash your mouth out with soap & water, dear boy! In traditional fashion, I'll take the bait...personally, I think it's too close to call, but rest assured, I shall be heading to the pub for the 8:3am kickoff (our time) to cheer, drink, and hopefully celebrate.

In the meanwhile...not a great deal happening with my life. Getting itchy feet again...let the Southern Hemisphere beware!

To all my English Friends......

Does today feel good???? Well it should, as today is the last day of your IRB No.1 ranking, cause tomorrow (NZ Time) you are gonna get a hammering from the All Blacks.. It will be cold, it will be tight, but in the end it will be a black day for England...

Much Love to those who I have not declared war on...

Very cryptic, very cryptic indeed.

Well, I was in Bilbao at a stag do last week, and managed to resist going to "General Honcho's" at the end of the evening..... www.honcho.com

Fish and I are off to Dublin tomorrow for a weekend of beer, Jamie, Groove Armada and CHilli Peppers...

Other than that, we have lots of weekends planned in various places and the weather is 25 plus these days here....

so things could be worse.

Hugs to all.

Hello All,
Inca Trail, Galapogas.... blimey and there was me thinking Te Papa and Cuba Street were exotic!!! I need to get out more! Good on ya Adam, hug an iguana for me!
Well, looks like I have gone and found myself a proper job... Water Industry Training Adviser... chucked in the company car (up to 3.5L!) in favour of more wonga, and by Charlie you need every cent in this wee backwater we know and love as enzed! I was finally convinced when I found out the CEO treated everyone to Shrek 2 tickets, and they have a fancy dress do each year - & the company pay for the hire of the outfits! Meanwhile I have been temping at the Ministry of the Environment - Community Relations Department, which means I am surrounded by journalist stress bunnies and women in comfortable shoes - the rumours are all true about Wellington... Dr Scholl would make a killing in this city! I must admit working for a 'Ministry' is kinda fun, I even got to go to Parliament on Friday to a big (by NZ standards) Environmental Awards do... paid to drink bubbly all night - marvellous!
James and Rebecca have just been staying with us - they fly to the states next week, and Vicky is due to hit town on Tuesday - yay!
So life is turning out well in Welly, the gamble seems to be paying off... although H and I have had a few 'intresting' moments!!
Hope life is turning out well wherever you are!
Big Annie Hugs!

p.s. kittens are still beautiful!

Well, after a few days recovering in Peru I have made it to Ecuador and will fly to the Galapagos tomorrow, which, I must admit, I really excited about.
Only thing is my small gamble of hoping Ecuador flight prices were cheaper than Peru, is not true, almost three times as much to get back to Argentina (where my flight home goes from) so I have to do a few sums and it might be cheaper to fly back to Peru and get a flight from there.
It's all getting very close now, only a few weeks and I'll be home in the UK.
Hope were all ready for another drinky-poos with lickle old me?

I'm back from the Inca Trail, what a utterly fantastic, mind-blowingly beautiful place it is!
None of my limbs work now and I think I will walk with a hunch and a limp for the rest of my life, but it was worth it!
Walking 5km distance and climbing 1.2km UP from 3000 to 4200 metres above sea level does kinda take the wind out of you, and that was just day two, the last two days I moved extreamly SLOWLY!
I have 1.3 billion photos, something for you to look forward to.
