Back again, so i'll return myself to Taupo Bungy and just quickly run you thro my jump, was a bit easy really, just walked up there and jumped off, pretty calm and casual..... ha bloody ha, who am i trying to kid. Even my second jump i was nervous and standing on the edge thinkin Oh Sh!t. But this time i managed to jump on my own no push and i got dunked in the river, its quite an amazing feeling jumping but getting dunked was even stranger, one minute just falling, the next i was wet, and this time not because i pissed myself!! After the jump we watched the video of the Bungy, they try to flog it to you but we filmed it ourselves anyway but you dont get the bit where they film you and you dont realise, when your sitting waiting getting strapped up and talking complete nervous jibberish. We left Taupo and headed to Hamilton, the sun was beaming as it has done most of the time we have been here(i do like to remind everybody of this wonderfull summer/winter were having here). and the drive like most in NZ long twisty turny, sheep, fields, hills, grass, cows etc etc etc. But aventually we arrived at Hamilton, which is a fairly big 'city'. We drove round getting our bearing as we tend to do and came across a Holden garage/showroom. Holden is a car manufacturer here and oz and they make the fricking best trucks probably in the world, the white one in the pictures is just one of the different styles and models they have. So a few dreams later we both came back to the real world and jumped back into Molly our trusty little camper, and headed for somewhere to park up and grab some sun, we pulled up down by a river which was piecefull and quiet but close enogh walk to the city centre. The next day whilst doing what we do best, nothing, another camper pulled up next to us and this old looking geezer jumped out. Leightons the name, im from Melbourne, what about you boys and off he went telling us everything we need to no about well....pretty much anything. 67 years old and been traveling for 15 years got a camper in Oz and another in NZ and another inTazzy as he called it, tazmania to us. Told us about beer and boats and well like i say anything. That night we shot into town something about a 28th birthday or something knotty had going on. i dunno but bloody good excuse for a beer, so off out we went to celebrate the ol boys bday, i told him he'd be like leighton soon haha. The night was good some nice people out and about one guy from Kint sorry i mean Kent, and some old shiela that clocked onto knottster, very funny altho he werent to impressed, so much so that when she popped off to the loo we decided to make a bloody runner!! It seemed that i had celebrated the night more than knotty cos i woke up with a sodding hangover and he didnt. Hair cut day, the time had come to get the barnet chopped, i was a little bit unsure and with the best pleeds from Matt Mac and my Bro it had to happen. Knotty got his done to and the hairdresser decided that he'd look better with really short hair and as he put it 'she scalped me'. And mines pretty short now too but it feels nice and cool in the breeze. the rest of the day was spent dossing and looking in a few bookshops for another book to add to my collection of three!! We said our good byes to leighton and he wished us all the best, i wanted to take a picture of him and he was more than happy to pose for the camera. Destination Auckland.
Enough for today , it hurts my brain thinking(its not used to it). Hope your all enjoing the blog still and im not boring you. Hope the ps3 is good matt mac.
