Oh come off it Dawn, you know that no such video exists...........he'd never get you near the bonnet of a BMW

Come to think of it though, I wondered where all my fish forks had got to

Here's a challenge for all those heading this way in the next few weeks/months. What's the longest book you can read from cover-to-cover in the air on your flight to NZ? I'll be generous and include the refuelling transit time.

The rest of us can make worthy suggests. I'll start with the obvious contender - all three books of LOTR (or all 6 if you're a purist).

Well you should know what a fish fork looks like - you were the one being poked by it

That poor VW Golf has never been the same since

Just wanted to wish you luck .. I can't believe you are only 3 weeks away from flying off.

One piece of advice I was given (although not been able to put into practise yet) ...enjoy the time you have left here ... make time for coffees etc with friends, rather than using your spare time doing unnecessary stressing and panicing.

Am looking forward to meeting up with you in welli in June or July (I hope!!)

Lou
