stoked!

well just a quick hello from the launderet. in doing my weekly wash so have a few mins to fill ye all in on our goings on. very disspointing match yesterday between the lions and the all blacks (or pussy cats as they're being called over here). going to get all kinds of slagging in work tomorrow. the kiwis love going on about how great they are at everything, nearly worse than the english for it. all the commentators n everything, completely biased! anyway i'll just have to grin and bear it i suppose.
well we've kind of settled into a bit of a routine now in the last 3 weeeks or so. work all week, drinking and boarding at the weekend. its quite good fun i must say. have had a few good ole sessions on the friday nite with the work crew and a few saturday nite ones with the lads. work is going fine. havent made too many fuckups in the last while and getting into the swing of it all. was up boarding all last weekend and today as well. have plenty of bruises for my troubles and a very sore ass at the moment but am finally making some progress and think i might be gettting the bug. can t wait till next weekend to try out some new stuff ( and its only sunday evening now!) had to retire a little early today due to very sore ass! if i fell once more on it i dont think i'd have been able to sit down all week.
hello to ted and jean by the way sounds like yere having a ball travelling around. give us a buzz when you get to nz for an ole chat! fergus finally made it to queenstown a few hours ago so we're all heading out for a family din dins at winnies , 'world famous' pizza place, so i'm going to toddle on here. hope everyones well at home. a few emails with a bit of news would be appreciated (lazy feckers!).
hugs
