Greetings from rainy New Zealand! I'm not sure but I think the summer may have ended prematurely. Not too bad, as it has been nice here since October but its always sad to see the sun go...

Lots of trips out and about with Steve's parents over the last four weeks and they are safely back in England now.

I have secured a new job which is great because its exactly what I want to do and it means I can get back into work, I'm bored after five weeks self induced unemployment and with no one to entertain anymore.

Some pictures of our trip to Queenstown, heart of the tourism industry on the South Island - an amazing place, quite like any other in New Zealand. Very picturesque. A big ski resort in the winter- it was well equipped for tourists and had lots of bars and restaurants. It is the extreme sport capital of New Zealand but we opted for a wine tour, a farm tour, a boat tour and some driving trips...save the bungy jumping for next time !
