Rodney is no longer. I had him towed away this morning and now all that is left are a couple of bent number plates. So sad.
Given my money situation (i.e. that I have none) - I have made the shocking decision to skip the South Island and head straight to Fiji, where I will bum around on an island for a week before heading home. Missing the South Island is terribly baad, I know, but I am getting travel tired, my bank has not a bean in it and the weather here is rapidly turning nasty. I'll just have to come back to NZ in a year or two (though next time I'll bring a friend and make sure I don't buy a rusty van!).
So, I'm going to be back in the UK in just over 2 weeks, whereupon I will need to find a job, a house etc. Ok, so that won't be so much fun - but I'm looking forward to seeing everyone...
Sad that ur missing out on south island but happy you are returning in two weeks. Very exciting..... yay yay yay....

ReplyDeleteu can guess it's late on friday and I've already started to wind down 4 the w/e -- hic!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the timing is right for you to come home - and the weather is turning glorious! Unfortunately I think we're going to miss each other by a mere few days as we are flying out to Kenya on Monday 30th April :-( Perhaps our paths will cross again somewhere in the yonder sometime in the future. Take care and enjoy Fiji! lx
