Hey Blogosphere, Jeff is here...

I have decided to update y'all with one of my sporadic blog posts. I haven't got heaps of news but i guess that's not really the point. The last weekend gone we went to "We Will Rock You" which was excellent and a "p" party in hamilton which was good also. We tried to picnic in the rain sunday but alas.

Earlier in the week davie and I caught up with jen and pet(aunty/uncle) which was nice. Few beers and some nice italian food on the viaduct.Previous to that we caught up to matt(cousin), went to a "round the world" party, spent labour weekend at waiheke and visited hamilton a fair bit. So lots of little stuff on at the moment you could say...

Work is alright. My days are spent computing away feverishly which can be tiring but is enjoyable for the moment. It's all supply network modelling at the moment. i.e what if we increase production at x, do we need to ship more at y or change this or do that or whatever. Fonterra seems to be waiting for the big capital structure announcement on the 15th of november so we'll see what happens. You never know...

Flat is still holding together. We have decided to stretch out our tenancy til mid-november with kate staying here too. It'll be good to save the odd dollar to spend in far off places. Speaking of which, it is pretty certain we are going to honeymoon in Africa. Exciting stuff. We are planning a tour from joburg up through to nairobi and visiting 5-6 countries on the way.

Kate is well. She is in hamilton at the moment. She has been there ~8 weeks and has 3 more weeks there before starting work at starship hospital here in auckland. She is completing her diploma in obstetrics and gynae and still deciding if this is what she wants to do. Mum is up at the weekend and so i'll take her down or get kate to come up and we'll all have a bit of a catch up.. (future mother in law - daughter in law sort of thing)

Wedding plans are good. The invites have been ordered and should be here next week. The photographer etc are all booked and so now we just have to deal with a few details (shall we say).
