In 2009, for many reasons that we wont go into here, we took the family decision that it was high time that we had our next big adventure. Its taken a year to sort out but finally, on April 11th 2010, we leave Blighty and family and freinds for a new life in New Zealand. This blog is for us to keep telling our story to those we leave behind and for those we leave behind to know that we miss them and they are in our thoughts.

Happy new year

Happy new year everyone. Thank you all for your messages and cards and stuff. It was really lovely to hear from you. Jenn cried - AGAIN!

We arrived home on New Years Eve tired but ready to embrace the New Year. Definitely not in the right frame of mind though. We think you need your friends around you. Missed the party! Still we spent today having many New Years Eves listening to Seans internet radio following it around the world until we got to the UK as we cleaned the car ready to sell it. Somehow it seemed properly New Year once we had heard Big Ben chime.

The saying goes 'you can't polish a turd but you can roll it in glitter'. We proved it wrong. The Mondeo is sparkling like it was its first day out of the factory. Lets hope somebody wants to buy it before we step out of Ashburton.

Oh and we discovered that the chicks have been busy whilst we were away and have had a very successful attempt at hatching chicks MII. We were wondering where they had gone. Bubbles has three and the vicious white one has one. No doubt they will all be horrendously loud cocks...
