Its been a couple of weeks since my last confession but here it is. Jeffs mum Anita kindly gave me a lift to Indian Hills where I was going to stay with Joe on his ranch. Joe had given me instructions to go into a local bar and ask for the owner, Gary. Apparently Gary would let me use his phone to call Joe who would then come down and get me. It would have all gone perfectly if Joe had mentioned to Gary that some bird that talks funny was going to turn up. Gary l...

So I had my first attempt at driving on the wrong side of the road last week. Of course I had worked myself into a panic about it before I got to the car hire place. I dont think this was helped when I nearly got in the wrong side of the car forgetting that the steering wheel is on the other side!

Dinner w...

Apologies for the delay in writing this but I have been a bit busy enjoying myself. Anyway my second week in Clearwater was just as good as the first and was once again quite eventful. Amelie was due to leave us on the Sunday so we all went out to Kelly's (a local bar) Saturday night. There was a band on and we all danced all night. Something happened to me that has never happened before, the bartender called me over to say that someone had bought me a drink. I...
