Hey, well the travel entries have been pretty quiet of late as all I do these days is work work work. But just thought I’d take some pictures of the weather we've been having in the UK over the last week. It was -3 when I came home from work in the early hours of the morning. Even had a bit of an off road driving experience. The other about 5 inch of snow fell whilst I was working, I set off home down the slope next to the hotel when the car started to slide and I ended up on [View Full Entry]

Well I've been back in the UK for a while now but just thought i'd add an entry to let people know i'm still alive. I'm working at Oulton Hall at the moment in the champagne bar. The place is really nice but the money isn't all that great but at least i'm working. Hope this message finds everyone well. Calv [View Full Entry]

Well, I can't believe it's been a year but I’m back. My mum and sister picked me up from the airport and I even managed to arrive back on a sunny day, which apparently has been very rare this year in England. Chilled out mostly on Saturday and caught up with my family and went out on Sunday to catch up with a few friends. All in all things are pretty much the way I left them. Hopefully start looking for a job this week and see what the bank balance looks like. Oh the joys of the real world. Still [View Full Entry]

Well you can't go to Africa and not do a Safari so I took a day trip to a game reserve to see some of the animals you can only see in this part of the world. Was fantastic to see them in a more natural environment than a zoo but the weather was crap. The ranger thought we were all crazy to come out in that weather but as soon as he asked where I was from he laughed and said now I understand. Last day tomorrow before I fly home. [View Full Entry]

Well I’ve been saying I wanted to do it for a while now so I bit the bullet and went for it. Can't believe a year ago you wouldn't have got me to swim in the sea in England, never mind jump in the water with a Great White. It was a fantastic experience and I definitely want to do it again. Was even talking to the guy about working with the sharks as a volunteer. Be serious bragging rights in the pub, "So what do you do for a living?" "Oh I work with great white sharks". Wasn't really that [View Full Entry]

Well I can't believe how fast the year has gone. It only seems like yesterday i was on the way to the airport to fly to New York. Been in Sydney for the last month working for swatch group in customer service. Had a great time in the city and made a few friends on the way. Been to Bondi and manly beach, been to watch the Bronco's play and put away a fair bit of tooheys. Just in the Airport waiting to board the plane to South Africa so this really is the final leg of my journey now. Didn't [View Full Entry]

If your wondering why I haven't made an entry in a while its because the computers here are S#@t. I've tried 3 different ones now and i can honestly say I've known dead people move faster than these things. Was thinking of getting a bit rock an roll earlier & smashing them up after the 5 attempt failed to upload my pictures. Sorry about the rant but after working in IT for the past 7 years i find it very frustrating. Rest assured when i can get on a PC that isn't running windows '1978 I'll put my entries in. Hope [View Full Entry]

Hey everyone, I know it's been a while since I made an entry but I’ve been so busy with work right up to leaving the Malpass. I left on the 3rd of August on the bus up to Cairns. Spent a couple of days in the city, Did a sky dive on Monday morning a couple more bungy jumps in the afternoon. Hired a wicked van & set of Monday night to Darwin. The first stop was the Blue Healer, a pub on the highway that’s supposed to be pretty famous. Had a quick beer & signed the walls for prosperity. [View Full Entry]

Sorry I haven't updated this for a while, when I get more time to add some other entries and upload my pictures I will. I'm back at Coolangatta for a few days with my sister Claire who is out on holiday. She's had pretty bad jet lag for the last few days so it hasn't been much fun for her so far but she seems to be coming round now and since it's cracking the flags here on the gold coast, even though it's winter time I get the feeling she'll come round in no time. Keep an eye out for [View Full Entry]
