stuff

Today's job is sorting and downsizing stuff, to make sure that the Pirate doesn't try to send a bag home by courier....it costs the Earth!!    Even by post it is $30 a kilo!! ( $1 is about 55p now)
  He had thought of sending two books home....WHY do people insist on giving you heavy things when they know you'll have a job carrying them....???!!!

So we're lighter by a large carrier bag of clothes, several books and bags and Novelty Christmas Gifts....great fun, but they are things that just gather dust.

Now we have to decide when we travel to Sydney, change tickets, get me a stopover instead of a transit visa....

meanwhile The Pirate is preparing for the Tour of the Northland, which starts on the 14th.


Things are starting to roll fast, like a snowball...

Well- now for an update....the cost of changing our tickets is....$2,000....$1000 each....half the cost of the original tickets!!!!!

Time to rethink....
