what a week

Well, a lot can happen in a week can't it?!

I've had to cancel our trip to London due to finances - earning Malaysian ringgit stiffles travel quite well! But, we can now afford to go to NZ and have a GOOD time. We're gonna stay one month, and it will be during summer!! woo hoo!
Unfortunately, this means I won't be Hamish's best man at his wedding. I am gutted to say the least about this, but there is no-one to blame but myself. If I had earned more money, or just stayed in NZ, then we'd be able to go... I know Hamish understands, but I feel like I've let my best mate down. So now I don't know whether to laugh or cry! I've made the right decision financially, but it still sucks!

Much ado about nothing...

Hey there everyone,

Another long break between posts, mainly because I couldn't be bothered to write anything...

Nevertheless, many things have happened since my last posting, and I shall regale you with these happenings now:

I'm 30 as of 9th July - Happy Birthday to me, etc etc etc...

Macvay is coming back to civilisation on the 14th July. Happy Bastille Day to any French readers!

My Sister is now engaged to be married - and I am stoked about this. One small problem though, it's during February, which is the busiest month of the year. But, it's the best excuse to go back to NZ and home, so we'll just have to find the money.

Hamish's wedding is coming fast, in Sept, so getting a little bit excited for that trip - childless and free to do what we want, when we want! We've had to cut about a third out of the trip to save money, but thats cool.

The All Blacks are playing again, and have so far won all 4 matches this year. Thank GOD the football World Cup is over - what a bunch of arse that was - 7 f--king channels devoted to those wimpy over-paid pansy boys running around faking penalties... no wonder I hate soccer.



Thank you for your kind attention, and have a nice day!

Jake
