Hail all,
That hair on geoff is quite hidiouse!!!!! much amusment though! Liv, it looks like you took the elephant you had already carved out and gave it a polish!!!!don’t strain yourself will you? where is a pic of jul’s rabbit? one pic is of geof on present. the horse at regula’s, and the other is of the ride in golden bay, the horses prabcing up the hill after a hard gallop on the beach. the Cale thing sounded fun. reminded me a bit of what i thought of the bowie one i went to. i liked all the old stuff, but didn’t know any of the new stuff so didn’t like that as much. i’m sure chris would like to go. he will probably have tickets already!!!
greymouth is ok, not nearly as bad as the book says it is, though it is sunny today. the wwoofing was great fun as the people were so nice and generous, especially with their food, they had about five cows and pigs in the freezer, and pulled out a hunk of meat every day!! tasty! we went jade hinting a lot along the beach. the lovcals have bucket loads of these lovely, poilished stones which come down from the rivers and are them polished up by the sea. we had no luck though and didn’t find one. there are also some good gold rivers round here so on our way down to the glaciers we are going to stop of and sift a few niggets of so out of the silt with the frying pan!!! well, cheers for moving the money accross. maybe it would be better if you just did it? i’ll try and get on though soonest as you have texted the other stuff. nothing in the greymouth postal services so i presume the lengthy letters and wot not hasve gone to queenstown. jolly good. oh yes, these people were so friendly and we had sucha good time that they have invited us back for xmas!! it will beat spending it in the back of the car with Goeff!!! we will see where we are, but it would be nice. my hair is really long now, and blond ‘cos of the sun. geoff’s head looks like a coconut rather than egg now. the grey turd is going well, and that’
s about all the news, we are heading to athers pass and then south top the glaciers. will try and phone from there.

love Tanya
