So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye....

The Hierophant · 11-10-2003, 07:15 AM

...fruit-picking work has buggered off up north, and so must I... [img]smile.gif[/img] (in the tune of the 'goodnight song' from The Sound of Music

)

Now that the university study year has finished, I'm heading off to Nelson (a small district at the Northern tip of New Zealand's South Island) with a few friends to work on an orchard for a couple of months (if all goes well). We'll be living in tents, and so it's highly unlikely that we'll have internet access (hell, we'll be lucky if we have drinking water access

). So, to all my online friends, acquaintences, colleagues, and other people that might actually notice that I'm not around for a while, goodbye and good luck. I'll miss you.

I'll be visiting my parents for Christmas (from about the 20th to the 30th of December), so I'll be able to catch up with you all then. I'll be sure to take as many cool photos as I can as well, so expect Stealthy's to get a hefty update in a month or so. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Anyway, until next time, take care of yourselves and live the good life.

Love
Aaron.

Have fun! Over here we've got quite a few more months to go before we finish, but then again we did only start 6 weeks ago... I suppose I can't really accuse you of slacking! (Bloody tax-dodging, social-scrounging, layabout students!

)

Cheers mate. Have fun, make money, and enjoy your stay. I'm already jealous that you're living in NZ [img]smile.gif[/img]

be safe and watch out for those sharp rocks that you always seem to find under your bed roll when sleeping in tents.
