Cate in NZ Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Hi all, sorry I've not got time to read all the new posts since I last logged on, so I'll save that treat for when I get home, but I couldn't resist popping on the forum to wish you all a great day tomorrow at Jimmy's. I'm sure that you'll all have a fabulous time, I wish that I could join you all, but with any luck at all I'll be around for the next Jimmy's meet I hope that the sun shines and that you all raise lots of awareness and funds for BHWT. I'm not around much at the moment because I'm on holiday . Down under in New Zealand and having a fantastic time. This is the most beautiful country, stunning scenery, friendly people, great wine We've spent 3 days in Auckland and 2 with a friend in a small town called Cambridge and now we're gradually working our way down North Island and are currently staying in a town called Rotorua. The children have tried bungy jumping and zorbing today, as well as a couple of other whacky activities, oh, and we watched a sheap shearing demonstration. Very slick and a lot more fun than it sounds. OK, we're 11 hours ahead of you (I think) and it's now 21:15, so I'm off to refresh my drink and perhaps fit in a quick dip in the pool before I try to grab an early night. Loads of good wishes for tomorrow, and I'll be back on (with photos ) after I get home next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 Thanks all. I just love this, 13,000 miles away and an 11 hour time difference and I can still attempt to keep up with the forum 5:30pm here, so the lull before dinner, and I'm having a quiet half hour of forum time . I'm guessing most of you are still sleeping as it's just me and 1 guest on right now We've moved on from Rotorua now, now in Napier a beautiful Art Deco city in the heart of the Hawkes Bay wine region. Beautiful . Not sure that I want to come home........ loving it so much here, very warm, clean and friendly with such stunning scenery.
