How exactly did you kill him when you could only communicate by codec!!!??! eh? eh?

all hail!
godsblood! i’m paying for the gamecube blast it all. you just have to purchase it for me.
well i’m still in westport. and am staying for one more night and heading of to greymouth tomarrow noon. the classy eco-lodge was booked up godrot it! the plan was to go there and do a bit of rock climbing nearby. now i shall go to the beach and fester around the town a bit. last night i met a realy cool canadian girl(there are so many canadians here!) called michelle at the hostel. niether of us had seen a tv for weeks. so we went to the supermarket got some beers-spieghts- and some icecream and watched two movies in quick succesion. some crappy sean connary film and good will hunting. gwh is quite good. just realised it is the 20th. most extrordinary. thanks for the happy birthday texts.

i’m travleing on my own ‘cos wenever i meet cool people they are always doing something different to me. this girl michelle is going in the opposite direction! i have the e-mails of people who are travleing down the west coust ahead or behind me so hopefully we will meet up.

you should probably clean the bagpuses leg before it goes gangrene!

when i go to franz josef depends on how long i spend in grey mouth. i’m thinking of doing a day trip though it won’t be cheap.

i don’ think i will be doing much birthday revelry here. this town is not somuch dead as rotten with maggots feasting on it. and i know the grand total of one person who is leaving for the heafy trek in half an hour.

its possible i might work at something other than fruit picking but unlikely i’m not so keen on working at all.. interestingly enough sarge turned out to be a traitor on the last day. i had to kill him.

see you soon!

Yar, everyone is selling off GameCubes quick-fast due to severe lack of public interest! Dixons, i believe, are selling them off cheap too. mayhaps I could get one and take it up to uni with me to test it out! ahaahahaha! Not sure what game i’d get with it tho. Apparantly, metroid prime is being released and bundled with the cube this friday, so maybe by the time i get back, argos will have discounted the game as well;-)

Tom and I went to see Jackass yesterday – quite funny, but pretty much lots of tv progs blended together. Also, I picked up a free “the ring” poster for you, many happy returns! It should be your birthday when you read this. Tried to find a decent e-card to send but there aren’t any – have a frappacino (from starbucks) on me!

Bagpus had a huge gash on its leg the other day, oozing with pus. It promptly leaped on me and spread the ooze on my jumper – pleasent. I may shoot it tomorrow.

When do you hit the Franz Joseph Glacier? Be sure that you crampons are sufficiently sharpened;-)

BTW: “hello” in maori is “Kiaora”. Vital info, should you need it…

Happy birthday for tomorrow from G & T. (the amusement never ceases). Don’t consume too much of the local fire water

hail niblick,

sound like you are getting up to some fun larks!! almost as amusing as mine but not quite!
why are you travelling alone?? how come you havn’t got hords of friends clamouring for your company?????
sounds like nz is fun. Keep any fleeces you buy and give to me as it will be winter when we get there! perhaps not the jackay though. sounds a bit mpth eaten for my liking.
We are fending begger off in madurai at the moment, waiting to go into a famed temple and catch our train! enjoy, and what price the
fruit picking?? sounds like this had been a fun and entertainment trip so far, instead of the money earner it was meant to be!!!

Come in corporal meathead.
It’s the sarge here. Check out the local ale house if you need work and can’t find any ripping your finger nails out fruit picking! Make sure that you tell them you’re a pint pulling veteran from good old blighty!

Buy the leather jacket. It gets colder the further south you go. That glacier’s made of ice, remember.

I’ll look into the game cube once you’ve started picking fruit – you can’t say fairer than that!
