Hello Avon! 
Good to hear from you. I hope things are looking up for you a bit.

 Av> Heh.
Yes indeedy! I would love to catch up with you soon too. I am flying to CHC next month (16/17/18), not quite Dunedin, but I'm hopeful to make semi-frequent flights to the South Island now that I have client (x1) down there. If I can make more clients, perhaps in Dunners, that would be ace. Then you, me, Bob and others could all catch up and life would be grand :)

Yes, I did that in Scotland back in the BBS (pre IRC) days, met my first girlfriend in Glasgow due to that sorta thing. Except there was no lawn camping. Too bloody cold for that!

Cheers,
Al
