An eventful couple of days. Dad's birthday

and he was told

he has got the big C again,

Daughter #'1 came second in the 'Best dressed under 25 at the races

(her own creations) and daughter #2 (17) paid the deposit for her airfares to Germany

in July... and life goes on.

Striped Tomato seen heading through Bunnythorpe 12:20 today.

Believed escaped from Turners and Growers. Other motorists have been advised to avert their eyes. Stripes are contagious. (Nice Wheels

**86GSXR** · 2nd April 2009, 18:58

We'll be on the road this time next week

Getting the 3 am boat (no dog's at that time of the morning) then spending an hour or two in Picton getting the feel, down the Wairau Valley to Saint Arnaud, Murch, BULLER GORGE, Greymouth and Arthurs Pass.

Then down to Dunners via the inland route, Bluff via the Catlins. Manapouri, Te Anau, Homer Tunnel, and Milford.

Double back to swamp Queenstown, Wanaka, Haast, West Coast, BULLER GORGE, Nelson.

May get to see Mo's sis over the Takaka Hill if she's lucky lol.

Then back via the Sounds!

Can't wait, this'll be the best SI trip ever
