Its a Tomo!

Bleeders,

Sorry that I have not been writing on here lately but I have been having a total blast here in Wellington.

First up though you may have noticed that there are no stupid adverts here. About 5 days ago I received a email from Google ADsense (the people who sort out the adverts and pay me) saying that there had been a rise and suspicious activity and as such they weren't going to pay me ANY of the money that I had already earnt. Now I did break the rules and ask on facebook for people to click on the links, but I justified this because I had to earn £60 in advertising before they were going to pay me any. I therefore asked people to click on the links and once I had taken out my costs then I was going to give the rest to charity - Amnesty International, great charity. What I am saying is that there are no advert, I didn't get a single penny from any of the adverts that were on here previously and the kind people at Google ADsense are closely resembled to a bunch of clucking bankers.

Rant over. Now what have I been up to in 'Welly'. I went for a walk around 2 museum's, very good - very free (I do like free museums!). I went to a excellent Mexican Restarunt called La Boca Loco and discovered that I actually quite like Guacamole. I purchased some fivefingered shoes to replace my sandals because I hate having sand in them and quite frankly they suck. I went to a house party with the most amazing view and got very drunk and I have just been chilling out at my cousins house reading books. Its been excellent.

I really do like Wellington. The whole city has a really cool, chilled out vibe about the place. Parts of it do remind me a lot of 1950's america, but that is not nessacary a bad thing. Its just really cool place, I suppose that this is the first place that I have visited on my travels that I can actually picture myself living here. It is that good.

I know that I haven't really written that much about Wellington but the reason for that is that I haven't done too much. Sorry bleeders. I did have a excellent final night here. Unlike most of my 'final' nights in places I didn't go out and get totally wasted. The main reason behind this is that I woke up at 13:00 with a masssivve hang over from the house party we went to on Sat night. So a walk was undertaken with my cousin and one of her mates. After this I had myself a little nap. Then we headed into the city for a really nice meal followed by a film. This, however wasn't a normal trip to the cinema. My cousin works for Weta here, and so we went to see a screening of Promethus (I hope I spelt that right, if not, sorry Tommy P) in the sound screening room that Mr. P Jackson uses for all his films. It was AMAZING. Such a ultimate cinema experience. The film was really good, so that helped. There were no adverts or previews, just straight into the film. The cinema was so beautiful. It was free (I like free stuff). Everyone there respected the film by not talking (they work for a film company so its expected). The picture quality was immense (best 3d yet). But the sound, WOW. Un-be-live-able Jeff! And everyone stayed until the end to watch the credits, which I always like doing at the cinema.

Wellington in all its glory.

So as of tomorrow I am flying to the south Island and I have hired a spaceship. Its basically a people carrier with a bed in the back. I am there for just over 2 weeks with no internet. So unfortunally we are going to have to go on a break readers. Now, I don't mind if you want to read other blogs, that's fine. I wont like it but I understand, we all have our needs. But you better be waiting for me when I return, just promise me that!

Adiós Amigos for 2 weeks.

Oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOTHER for Monday, you really don't look a day over 30 (which is a bloody miracle considering this is the big 60!).

I am so dead when I get home.

A very atmospheric picture I took! Love this one!
