'lo all
Been a fun afternoon for me today [img]smile.gif[/img]
Went into town to meet my friend for lunch; I get there and give her a call to find where she is and she tells me she got called into work till 3pm... grr... so I got 3 hours to waste.
Start off by going and laying down the money for my new snowboard boots

had a choice of black or black for both which wasn't exactly what I wanted but end of the day they's gonna do the job and they's gonna do the job good
Also picked up some wax and a new scraper.
After dropping my purchases back at John Bulls (My work is two doors down from the snowboard shop) I still had time to kill... Went to Smiths City (small dept store place I used to work at) to check for a new cellphone and to catch up with all my mates down there. 1 hour left...
Wandered back down to Onboard (snowboard shop) and chilled with Selena till time was gone. Cool chick, she'd just got back from Wanaka and the Burton NZ snowboard open so she was filling me in on the whole scene, def gonna have to make my way there next year [img]smile.gif[/img]
Anyways... hooked up with Tomo and went and downed a few beers at C1 coffee shop and talked the day away. Grabbed fish 'n chips on the way home which I'm finishing off as I type and they're bloody good
-------
From what I've heard snow at Thredbo and Mt Buller leave a lot to be desired
Snow in Aotearoa at the mo though is getting better every day... another dump last night and still dropping, nice soft powder stuff
Trying to hook up someone to throw gas money at for next week but no luck so far, gonna make it happen for sure though, can't wait to try out my new gears [img]smile.gif[/img]
