Bob and Nicks excellent adventures
OK so the hitch hike mission to queenstown went t*** up so we ended up getting the bus, thankfully queenstown is a much nicer place than stinkin dunedin.
Taking the bus drivers advice on hostel we met some amiable characters who we decided to watch the rugby with down in a nice and very cheep bar in town. This place is a bit like your archetypal skiing village, with bars and birds a plenty.
talking of birds, one of the characters we met was this bird from worcestershire, a nineteen year old crusty. And, as luck would have it, she wanted a piece of Bob.
A description here is necessary; She was quite petite, a slim body, dirty dreads, a tatoo on her back/shoulder area anda sharp lip piercing. Having said all that and not to be too unfare to Bob she wasnt all that bad.
So, we ended up drinking a few beers before heading to a bar in town that sells cocktails out of teapots. They werent all that good but got us reasonably pissed.
Towards the end of the night after a lot of smooching, Bob went off with Hannah, and decided that hed try and sort a room for the night ( the age old dorm problem!). After being offered a room for 140 bucks, he decided to haggle the guy down to 100, but having none of that bob and company left dissapointed.
Anyway, Up early and we decided to try to Hitch to Milford Sound, some nice place with good walks and stuff. It was a massive Hitch! much bigger than we thought and we ended up getting stuch for a while in the middle of nowhere before finally getting a dream hitch in the back of a nice fat camper van driven by a nice fat man named either Barry (nicks Guess) or Tom (bobs guess). He also invited us to drink his duty free alc tonight although when we went down to find him he had gone, which was a s***ter!
tommorow we are off on a treck to the middle of nowhere to stay in a hut with nio showers, no flushing toilets, no lights, no heating, not staffed, no wood for a fire and no cooking equipment, oh a no running water, you have to drink from streams. Its also forecast to snow... Hardcore!
P.S nick bumped into a girl he pulled at uni last night named Lizzy.
