Manchester United!!!!!
Glory, Glory Man United!!
We are just back from a few days in Manchester and Liverpool. Neal had last minute tickets to the semi finals of the Champions League football - to watch Manchester United play AC Milan!
Chancing my luck I also got the days off , and scored a ticket in the boxes!!
WOW!! It was just so awesome!! Old Trafford was full of about 73,000 crazy singing fans - the air was just buzzing! I totally lost my voice from screaming and jumping up and down!! Neal was stoked to be there, and I am now a true convert to live soccer and Man Utd. Especially when they score last minute goals!
The next day we did a tour of Old Trafford - the museum, the players change room (got to sit where Cantona and Ronaldo sit - cool) and Neal got to sit in Sir Alex's chair in the digout!
Manchester is a great city! Heaps of cool restaurants, bars and insane shopping! Has been done up recently. We made a b-line for China town for our fix of yum-cha!! We found ourselves in a very dangerous gang suburb in search for a pharmacy - oops and thank goodness for a taxi driver who would wait for us!!
Not long to go - less than 8 weeks - so much to do! It seem s funny as the closer you get to leaving - the more good friends you make!

Long Lost Easter Bunny!
Kia Ora Team!
Hows the craic?
Well has been a long time since I have written a little ditty for the blog site! Must be too much work!!
It has been action stations since St Paddys day. Easter weekend Neal surprised me with a weekend away in Kenmare, Co. Kerry (major brownie points!) - it is along the route of the ring of kerry - beautiful traditional wee town with awesome pubs and restaurants. As the piccies will show we pottered about in the glistening coves and Neal played a round of golf at Waterville. The golf course was insane ( I was the caddy due to recent tummy stitches damn it!), real links course with tall grasses and gorse! It has two holes ranked some of the most beautiful/best in the world - pretty cool. Not to mention lots of choccie from the Easter Bunny!
Yip am still pottering along with this golf malarchy - and I dont even want to be a surgeon !!(sorry boys!!) It is a great way to see the country, and last night I played my best round ever - and also my first round with other people - including one of the golf pros!!
Work is keeping us pretty busy, the on calls suck big time - this is my first weekend off in weeks! Bring on the 50hour weeks at home! We have even managed to convince a few friends to come down to NZ and work - should be fun! Speaking of fun Neal is in seventh heaven at the moment after scoring a ticket to watch Manchester Utd play Milan at Old Trafford in the semis of the Champions league!! Like a big kid in a candy store!!
Its getting a lot warmer and more summery here - yet despite that I have only been on two runs towards a half marathon I am doing in 2 weeks with friends - oh dear!!!
Ah well time to go, hope everyone is well and happy!
