Thank you Thanks Olza, for your wonderful blogging. It's been a pleasure following your adverntures. Now get Puffin do do a new album, and maybe learning some Gene Pitney songs!
Golden domes Hey boys, sweet to recall the swimming-in-fat duck, and happy you liked it ! I know it's a rather unusual dish for Kiwis, but it definitely is a big thing here in France.
Anyway, just so you know, every golden bit of Versailles (all right, not every bit, but most of it), is authentic gold leaf... I even had a go at touching (and distastefully shredding to bits) one of those leafy golden things as a kid. 'round here in Versailles, it's the real stuff most of the time - the government has given the Versailles domain a special authorisation to use it anywhere they can (afford it).
and really sad you didn't talk about the stupid rugby song and pastis-drinking pub experience, hehe.
see you around boys.
cheers,
Nick
Internet Man, check out public libraries. You should be able to use the internet there for free.
Wish you guys had made a stop in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota. I've been following your travels and it would've been great to catch a show. Plus, Minnesota's cool. Ah well.

Front or back lawn? Love the shots of the really long lawn. It looks really interesting. But what is the scrapping looking pile of metal in the background?
Aw Whot! "Things may seem a little grim, but in reality the boys are made of stern stuff. We are from Canterbury after all, and have survived Rangiora high school and savage winters in St Albans."
That had me guffawing in my Cornflakes, mot.
On no ... ... man ... 19hrs on a frikkin ferry. Holy shit, I think I would have taken the transfers option, english speaking or not. I know I can't sleep for 19hrs which is about the only way I would have considered it. I have a weak stomach, the Cook Strait ferry in bad weather sucks.
Can't believe the prices of food. That's just insane ... what did it taste like, or did you not end up buying?
Funny stuff.
Cheers Dave
Misleading Titles Yes that certainly was an inflammatory title - when I got the email message about this post it conjured up images of you guys held down with a gun at your head while Rob Collins gave you both a nude body-slide. Having read the post, I now understand but I'm still not sure which scenario would be worse...
