Finally got round to it, sitting in the smartest cyber cafe I have ever experienced on the main cathedral square in Christchurch where just hours earlier acts from the World Buskers festival were seeking the applause and more pertinently the money of those watching.

Christchurch is supposed to be the most english of any of the cities in NZ, a view supported by the one day spent here so far. The city is the home to the oldest anglican cathedral circa 1880 in the southern hemisphere and has a river Avon alongside which runs Oxford and Cambridge terrace, supposedly the river is also punted on. Am staying in a rather reasonable priced if rather sterile backpackers, called oddly Dreamland, am moving tomorrow to a hotel, less reasonable priced but all round nicer which also has the advantage of being very much nearer the bus stop where I will be getting the early morning coach to Queenstown on Tuesday. .

Hi Steve

Think you need to spice it up a bit!

How about you you check ou the local Welsh groups or (possibly far more interesting) the local internet dating scene!

I could see if I can get you a syndication deal
