... and the new indicators are rather overwhelming.
It was a pleasant holiday but I think I had had enough really and wanted to come home after a couple days. Still, a week probably did me good and now I'm actually looking foward to doing some work.
I haven't really travelled around NZ all that much. Interesting to drive through all the farms (waikato) to all the pine plantations (bit lower down the island) to all the orchards / vineyards (napier / hawkes bay). There was an earthquake and fire around the 30's in Napier so they pretty much rebuilt the whole town in art deco which was in favour at the time.

And now... I have to try and find Damos. Dunno if he said anything but he decided to jump the ditch for a little visit and he is over here... somewhere... as I write... So if you are reading... give me a call :-)
