As you can see, we are here. My brothers took us 'Up North' - Bay of Islands - and I didn't have time to e-mail, call or take papers with important numbers on for contacting people..... apologies will follow.

Here in New Zealand, it's cold. It is their Winter. We see the steam coming from our mouths early in the morning but by lunchtime, I'm in a t-shirt and Daniel is jumping in a freezing cold river from cliffs! What's up with that?

Doing my 'ead in it is!
