hi, just to let you know that i arrived safely in canada yesterday and am staying with one of lucys friends in vancouver. still tired after a nights sleep. due to the time differences during travelling we had two may 14ths! so weired. anyway, got to run, but will call home in a couple of days. love chris

p.s dad, u getting tickets to see tigers at twickenham?

hi everyone, just a quick message to announce that this is officialy our last full day in NZ. am flying out tomorrow and it is going to be hell! set off at 2pm to fly from christchurch to auckland, then fly out to LA, which is a 10 hour flight, and weirdly will arrive there before we set off from NZ due to the time difference. NOOOO! then fly finally from LA to vancouver, with 'Alaskan Airways', which sounds mighty dodgy to me! we went to see the crusaders play rugby last night which was awesome, they beat the brumbies easily and scored a quality try at the end- see if u can watch the replay of it on sky! anyway, got to go now, but will be in contact once again once i arrive in canada, and have recovered from the tirednous! loads of love to all, chris xxxxx

P.S Nick, have u decided where u are going to have the stag do yet? let matty know that i will organise some t-shirts for it! how was matts stag do? x

Hey Nick, sorry for late reply but been in the midst of dissertations and exams. So email address is [email protected] good luck with it all, hope the trainings going ok. Hope your still enjoying your travels Chrissy, its so nice and sunny here but dont want it to be as got way too much work to enjoy it-sob! Take care xxxxxxx

Hi Chris, hope you're well and enjoying the South Island, let me know when you're going to the rugby and I'll see if it's on Sky, then you can hold up a "Hello Mum" sign - saw you say it on your DVD so she was well impressed. I showed it to her on Saturday and had to show Auntie Sally and Kell & Mark yesterday, twice!, everybody's pleased to see how much you enjoyed it, but I don't think Mum'd be happy if you took it up full time! Miserable again here, looks like it'll be wet for Nick's ride to Hunstanton, assuming he's well enough after Matt's weekend that is. Rugby season is coming to an end, Tigers have won their last 2 games by a single point so we're now 2nd with 1 game to go before the play offs. Great game on TV yesterday, London Irish walloped Wasps away with loads of tries- it finished 56-37- so they'll probably end up 3rd which means we'll play them at home. With the way they're going and we're struggling to score tries (keep missing overlaps and dropping passes) it could be close, although if we manage to pass the ball and hang onto it we'll give someone a hiding soon, let's hope it's in the final. Wasps are at Gloucester for their last game, and if they lose they'll be out of the play offs and Gloucester in, so that should be a big game. Day off today as it's May Day so nice and relaxed, big week at work coming up as we've got a major reorganisation about to be announced, I've got a new boss and he's going to be telling everyone his new structure in the next few days. Keep on having fun and taking care. speak to you soon. Love, Dad.
