11.30pm Thu 20 Mar: It's almost midnight in Hamilton, NZ, and here's a stop-gap blog until I have time to write a proper blog in a few days' time.I'm afraid to say I've abandoned my love of writing in favour of stackloads of sensational gallavanting around Queensland, Australia (very wet but fun nonetheless) and New Zealand (simply stunning and amazing hospitality with Nati's aunts and uncles in Hamilton, home of the recent England cricket catastrophe).
Check back in a few days for a proper blog...until then, some of you will be pleased to see I finally met my match when I came cropper with a croc.
We're now heading to the most remote places either of us have ever visited - Tahiti and a scattering of other stunning coral islands in French Polynesia, and then Easter Island, which really is the ends of the earth.
Until then...thanks for the emails and muchas saludos to all
Ali & Nati
