Hey Guys
I'm officially growing up and moving out of this blog. I have moved to www.africanjeffari.blogspot.com. Hopefully it's going to be awesome. I've even got a nice wee account at photobucket to store photos in and a hit counter...
The content might be a little different in tone to what you are used to given the audience is somewhat broader but hey!
party on.
Not long to go now til wedding. So far today I've managed to sort out some info for our charity, pay the removal company, repay a friend for the sound of music musical last night, email chris tuite, book a dentist (gulp), play with wedding seating plan and organise our couch to go to charity. This arvo will involve banking some cheques, arranging couch pick up, checking trade me auctions and seeing kate off to Hamilton where she is working for a week or two. Oh, then i am going to do a will (www.publictrust.co.nz) and then ??
I hope that gives everyone a flavour of the current state of things. Craziness.
So exciting though. Can't wait.
cheers
Jeff

Update from the Set of Chainsaw Massacre
Hi everyone,
Wow, it's been a long time since I've posted on here, that said there has been very little action on the whole as it is. It's been fairly eventful around my part of the woods in the last month or so from a news worthy point of view. We've had a chainsaw attack, a stabbing murder, a gang fight including clubs and iron bars and a big fire at work. I was not involved in any of these incidents, however I did get up close and personal with the fire. Basically all the paper that we recycle sits in one yard, and it caught fire. It was an extremely windy day so it spread like wildfire (funny that) and we were very lucky tha it didn't take our jobs away from us.
I'm looking forward to the wedding, not long to go now. One of the most important things that needs to happen for me is for my passport to be sent up from Chch.
Also, 2 days ago I decided to partake in the annual "Supersports" competition here in Tokoroa. It's on next weekend and basically, me and a collegue from work are competing in 20 different sports over the weekend. They include darts, mountain biking, discuss, sawing, running, lawn bowls, long jump, clay bird shooting, golf just to name a few. So I am currently doing a lot more exercise than usual. Should be fun to do, but I'm already starting to regret my decision!
Well that's enough for now. See you all across the ditch in a month. Take care.
Matt
