Hello! Well, had a bit of a dissapointing weekend, the weather was so bad we couldnt go out on the boat but wasn't all bad, the trip up was fun and we went accross to Russel on tha ferry to see the museum (shelter from the rain!) we also went to see the church which is the oldest in New Zealand and has little holes in the walls from musket bullets when the town was attacked by the Brittish in the olden days! (I have no idea when!) We had a gud night out in a bar there too with more live music! Had a busy week with work for uni but got it all handed in yesterday! A group of us went out last night to a few bars which were good and thismorning we went to book 2 mini vans so we can go across to the beach tomorrow but it's started raining again so I'm not being too hopefull! Will let you know how it goes! Thankyou again for all your emails! I'm desperately trying to reply to them all but am getting further and further behind so I'm really sorry if i haven't got back to you! Love sam x
