Dear God, stop the world I want to get off!

Ye Gods, when people said to expect jet lag, I didn't realise that the world and I would be spinning on different axis' for the foreseeable future. God, I feel rough!

Well folks, we're here. LA was horrendous, you're treated like a criminal and we were only in the bloody transit area for an hour and a half whilst the plane refuelled - I had my finger prints digitally scanned, and my photo taken!!!!!! Not impressed. I didn't even have time to do my make up. Cheek of it, taking your photo after twelve hours on a plane. B*stards. No, in all seriousness, it was horrible, I will not be flying via LA again, even if I have to book three years in advance to get it for the same price by going thru KL, HK or Singapore.

The house that we had agreed to rent is crap, big, but needs so much work - and having just finished doing up one house, I'm not going to do up another one to make a landlord money!

Dave's area manager looked at the house before we agreed to rent it, and said it was fine. Needless to say I'm not best pleased. And have had b*gger all sleep for the last week - which means I am not a person to argue with (as you will be most surprised to learn!)

However, we have found somewhere nicer to live, which is one bed smaller (three bed instead of four - but as our stuff isn't going to be here for another couple of months, we're still going to be rattling around in it! It's brand new, never been lived in, and less money a week than the other place, and the landlord's nice.

Only bummer is that I sent a load of post to the Kaiti address, so I'm just hoping that we can get that relocated otherwise I won't have any tunes! Which would be sad. :(

New address as of 10th November will be 163a Roebuck Road, Gisborne, New Zealand.

Any hoo, enough waffle for now, but at least this gives you somewhere to gawp at when you wonder what I'm up to.

Ciao for now.

Hi Honey,

It's good to hear from you. I can't believe you were treated like that in La.....no, wait a minute..I can. Bloody Americans. It sounds as though your 'new' house is a better choice anyway.

What's Gisbourne like? Are you still in walking distance of the beach? Not that I'm jealous you understand;-)

We've had a busy half term. We've been to 'Twinlakes' adventure park - brilliant. Neil and I had loads of fun on the rides lol. We've been to the 'Blue John' mine and we have a Halloween party to go to (I also have to dress up!)NICE! I'll post the photos in the usual place.

look forward to your next blog
