A bit of punching, a bit of love, some friendship and some wine

Well, I have been lucky enough to have two lovely e-mails from two friends today. I feel quite spoiled!! Thank you very much Helena and Kathy!! It's really wonderful for me to get e-mails and feel unforgotten :o) And a lovely long one from Lou a couple of days ago. What lovely friends I have! Sending me e-mails full of lovely words and compliments and kindnesses :o)

Also, i am seeing George (who I worked with at City) and hopefully Daran too (who I worked with at GenRe and stayed with my first weekend here) this weekend, up in Hamilton. It will be glorious to see some familiar faces!

My weekend was very nice, I went with my flatmates and 2 colleagues of one of them to Martinborough, a wine region north of here. We visited a couple of vineyards, had a picnic and visited a couple of towns. Saturday night was a comedy show with Adam and dinner then some drinks, and Sunday was down to a bar on the waterfront with my flatmates and more drinks in the sun. Hard life, eh? :o)

Other than that I am back to the personal training (he had a week's holiday) and back to the giving up smoking. I am getting very good at doing this now:

jab hook, jab hook, jab hook (duck!), duck, uppercut, uppercut. jab hook, jab hook (block!) block, jab hook jab hook. jab hook, jab hook (elbows and knees!) jab hook elbow elbow knee knee.

You get the idea :o) Turns out I love punching and am quite good at it! Best to keep out of my way in a street fight now I think you'll find :o)

I have my first maori lesson tomorrow night so that will be nice. Hope I meet some nice new people as well.

Oh.... and a little catch up on the romance side of things. Mum is right, this is getting to be a bit of a 'blog of the heart' rather than a travel blog and I apologise in advance for more soppy stuff. You can just stop reading here if you like!

I did the whole I love you thing! I actually said "I think I might be falling in love with you" so as not to scare him too much. I'm not sure it worked to be honest, I think he was a bit scared actually! He said "Oh, Ahhhhhh......(pause....) Yeah me too, a little bit"

He is going to be embarassed if he ever reads this! Bet he'd never think I'm writing about stuff like this (Sorry Adam if you do read this!) but I like sharing :o) Luckily he maintains he's not looked at this blog even once and that's probably a good thing actually!!

I don't mind his response, I think it's kind of funny actually. I'm glad I told him how I feel and I feel really secure and happy in how he feels about me, I know that at the very least he really likes me back. I think he was a bit surprised by it is all. Anyway, it's all fine, I've seen him twice already today for coffee and then dinner (both of which he called me up and invited me out for) and he's invited me over again tonight. So it can't have scared him too much!

Well that's me for today. Goodnight my gorgeous readers. Miss you all heaps :o)
