alright there folks, i'm putting a postcard on here because the website has stuffed up, rubbish hey. anyway hopefully it's getting sorted out. we're now in the cook islands (we decided no to go to fiji due to the military coup by bananaman or something), we we've been here for about 5 days with another week left (oh, what a life). we finished nz off in style, nic did managed to do another skydive (and not to be left out i did another, that's 3...

hello again, been a busy couple of days, did my second skydive (courtesy of the devlins, thank you) yesterday and it was amazing. Did 15,000ft (about 5km), you go so hight that you have to take oxygen masks with you. this time it was brilliant, because i'd done it before i could take more in (plus because we went so high you freefall for about 60 seconds, quite a long time at 200km per hour). I dived (dove?) over lake taupo, it's a volcanic lake one and a h...

We'll that's me forgotten about the budget, over the last 2 days we have decided we are on holiday (not just that, i think we may have gotten ourselves confused with millionaires, well that may be an exageration, but people with jobs anyway). we've had a cracking coulple of days (well actually it's been a cracking 18hrs), we started with a boat out to see sperm wales (18m long and 40 tonnes, pretty big), pretty amazing, we were out for about 3hrs and managed...

just a quickie to say thank you to the lads who clubbed together to get my the sky swing in queensland. as you can see i did it today and it was amazing, basically it's like a (well not like a, it is a) massive 100m swing, that they strap you into and then you jump off a platform (so much nicer than bunjy). it was brilliant, and i would reccomend that if you get the opportunity to have a go, then you do it. cheers neil, stu, brett, watty and walker (i ...

I have had a fantastic time. it was my birthday on the 9th (i'm sure you all know as i may have mentioned it once or twice). and i had a great day. nic treated me to a sky dive (she did one too) and it was a massive thrill. even now i can't believe i did it (so much so we're doing another in the north just so we can remember it better). the day was great, we were so lucky. for about 2 weeks prior to my birthday it had been raining (and even snowin...
