On the road again


Having spent so many summers at the family beach house in Opoutere, Coromandel it was time to discover the rest of New Zealand, so I embarked on a five day tour of the upper North Island - Tutekaka, Matapouri, Monganui, Cable Bay, Taipa Bay. Cape Reigna, Keri Keri, Paihia, Russell, Omaha, Piha and home - and then a few days at the beach house.  What a beautiful country we live in and how grateful I am for the bach!!  It was such an adventure I am even relishing being back at my desk and enjoying my own backyard.  It is going to be a big year for PR and life and I am ready to take it on!!!

Shark Survival


Sally decided to risk life and limb these holidays by swimming with sharks.  While it may not have ACTUALLY been that risky diving into the shark pool at Kelly Tarlton's, it was still a fairly brave call to take the plunge when you've never used scuba gear before and you're not too fond of sharks either.  While we have no doubt that Sally would come out better off is she was ever in an altercation with a shark, we're glad she didn't test the theory and is still in one piece, ready to take on the world of PR in 2009.
