I want that one. So last Saturday night I went into town for a friends birthday. We started the night in a place called Sin Bin, which is a nice little sports bar in Takapuna! After buying a few rounds from the bar, the barman informed me it would be heaps cheaper to buy a 'giraffe'. Having never heard of one before I asked him just exactly what he meant, as I would struggle to a) Buy a giraffe and b) fit it in the bar! He then pulled this thing from under the bar, how it ever fit there I will never know.

A change of plan! So I've come to realise that home really is, as they say, where the heart is! My heart just happens to be 12,000km from my current location, in a little slice of paradise called 'Orewa'! It's been great seeing people and catching up with old friends from years and years ago. It was also very nice to of spent some time with my cousins little girl Lois! Who knows when I will next see her again! Every time I visited! Maybe one day I can remind her of that and embarrass her!

Around the world in......however long it takes!: AB's vs England - Eden Park 14/06/2008
http://ayebro.blogspot.com/2008/06/abs-vs-england-eden-park-14062008_17.html
AB's vs England - Eden Park 14/06/2008. On Saturday we went to watch the AB's (All Blacks! Play the Pome's (England! Unfortunately the AB's won! But, here are some photo's from the game! We had quite good seats, we were right next to the pitch about 7 rows back, but sadly it was raining for part of the game so my camera stayed in my pocket. Also I was hoping the AB's would be facing us for the Haka, but they had their backs to us, AGAIN! So the video I got of the haka is not really worthy of an upload!

Only in New Zealand! Whilst driving home along SH1 this afternoon, a truck passed us carrying live stock. As he sped past us doing way more than 100km's I noticed something furry sticking from under the truck on the passenger side. Curious as to what it was, we managed to get level with the truck and this is what we saw. I was amazed, shocked and angry all in one instant! Why is this not illegal! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

So here I am, sat in my bedroom at 57 Duncan Road, cold, bored and miserable, thinking of the glorious sunshine and weather back 'HOME' in Auckland! Today marks my one week anniversary of being back here in this 'hell hole'! Tonight whilst driving back from South Wigston I past a group of about 20 kids, none of which where older than 15, smoking, drinking and just generally causing trouble. It made me think of what those kids would be doing if they were living elsewhere, for instance NZ?

Around the world in......however long it takes!: Mini Road Trip!
http://ayebro.blogspot.com/2008/08/mini-road-trip.html
As Richelle has now left New Zealand to attend university in Canada, we went on a mini road trip during our last week together. We took a slow drive down to the Bay of Plenty, where we spent the night in a nice 'authentic' Kiwi Bach (Holiday home for you pommes! We had 'choice' (fantastic) weather on the first day as we were driving down, but gnarly (horrible) weather the next day, so I didn't take many photo's, only a few on the first day. But anyway, here they are. That is all.for now! I want that one.
