Ouch


This has gotta hurt

wrap up

Quiet week, Diane went to hamilton on tuesday for the camera down the throat trick, everything looks ok there so full steam ahead for her op on june 3rd.
Diane got to meet our new wee man while she was there, i've yet to see him.

Went to whiti last night for dinner with Kevin and Leslie, Kev is off to hamilton for his own op on tuesday so fingers crossed for him too.

While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and move it in a clockwise circle.Now while doing this draw the number "6" in the air with your right hand.your foot will change direction and there is nothing you can do about it!

good time wasting website

Found this website http://www.carfax.co.nz/ type in your car/boat/bike registration number, very interesting.
Rode up whangapoua (360metres) hill today, kept my heartrate at 174bpm which is pretty good for me!
Di is off to hamilton on thursday to have a camera down her throat. hopefully it's all good news.

down time



well things have certainly gone quiet around here , but that gives me more time to ride my bike!I've just finished building up this bike..
It's a mix of road and mountain bike so can pretty much ride it anywhere around here.

Diane is busy doing her quilts and now that she has her new quilting machine i have hardly seen her!.
we have built a website for her,, have a look http://www.freewebs.com/dianesquilting


Found this pic of Ashley, i think it is a great shot.
