  • Megan Wegan,

    I will be needing a good blowing out of cobwebs.

    Oh, honey, I can guarantee that. And hugs, as Giovanni says.

    Is it bad that I've just (with my very limited knowledge of Auckland) checked on Google Maps that my hotel is within stumbling distance of the venue? (it is.)

  • Jackie Clark,

    Thanks Gio. I appreciate it. We're off to the doctor this afternoon, so we shall see. And anyway, by my reckoning that hug isn't too far away now. Only a week and a bit.

  • giovanni tiso,

    Eight days after the blend, yes. You will have to come armed with gossip.

  • Jackie Clark,

    What? I thought it was the 3rd? (fumbles with her diary). And save the hugs, Miss Megan. Cos you is getting one of the big bear all embracing heal the universe ones from me when I finally clap eyes on you.

  • dyan campbell,

    We are dealing, in our house at the mo, with a possible diagnosis of something nasty, I fear.

    Much luck & hugs, Jackie - and here's hoping this turns out to not nasty at all.

    All good Sof. Like I said, blood tests first, and then the neurologist. Don't know when that will be. We'll be okay. Love you for caring xx

  • recordari,

    I prefer a narrow tie, by 'n' large. Wait, what did I just walk into?

    What will I get if I wear a waist-coat and a pencil tie? Apart from thrown out.

    PS. All the best Jackie.

    I look forward to meeting you again Jackie and all the best of luck with the diagnosis.

  • Jackie Clark,

    Oh, thanks Andre. I doubt we will know anything soon. It will be fine, whatever it is. Cos that's how we roll.

  • Geoff Lealand,

    Jackie: I am not sure whether it is the right time or place but we do now have a surfeit of bikes. I did a well-paid writing job for Te Papa Press recently and have rewarded myself with a new Avanti road bike, with shocks and disc brakes. So, we have 4 other bikes sitting around pretty much unused in the basement, if you are still interested.

    Hope other things go well.

  • Jackie Clark,

    Oh yes interested, Geoff - that would be massive. We still haven't done the necessary research into getting one. I do appreciate the offer. Email me!

    Facebook page? What is this thing that you speak of? I am not understanding you ;)
    If Ben says it's ok then I will oblige but 'tis only a small camera. I'll throw up photos on this PAS page as I don't do friendbook.

  • BenWilson,

    You can bring a huge camera if you like. I'm not promising any kind of show, other than "show up".

  • Craig Ranapia,

    Should I worry that my confirmation doesn't seem to have shown up, or is it being done by (gasp!) a human being who will get around to it?

  • Sofie Bribiesca,

    Nope . I'll take some photos .I'll put them up here but I'm not wandering all over the internet because of face book which I will not be a part of. Not interested sorry.I'll show you the photos here as long as photoees agree. :)

    Should I worry that my confirmation doesn't seem to have shown up,

    Didn't you get confirmed as a young boy? I thought Catholics like that. ;)

    Must apologise -- it was delivered, and instantly got caught in the spam filter that only filters out every other piece of spam and everything I want to read. Grrr...
