Well, I say that I am closing it but not sure how to do that?
Anyway in case anyone drops in then here is a final (re-edit) of the 11 days in New Zealand - maybe a little bit more watchable and for 5 or so minutes is a good reminder of my time in NZ. No more guffaws or praise or regalia now - 'nuff has been said already.
These are the best days of our lives, see : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52ZbwsZuUmE
Where next, well this year looks to be 3 separate events. Around April plan to do some more sailing along the North East coast from Amble to Whitby with Nigel and yorviksailing.com and again in September a channel crossing from Brittany to Cornwall. And somewhere in the middle a long weekend on the motorbike into europe - probably France and West Germany.
So whether I use this blog or start another (probably) will come out in the wash.
Speak soon
