The South Island would suit you down the ground mate...glacier walks etc and all stunning. People laid back and not full of the PC crap that this place suffers from.

Once I've got some time, I'll post some photos up ...

Cheers

... good to hear that Jonah is on the mend - his first planned rugby match post the kidney transplant is for Martin Johnson's testimonial in June in the UK.

There were dire warnings that he shouldn't play rugby due to potential injury, but apparently the surgeon made sure the tranplanted kidney was tucked well up behind the rib cage.

The kidney is well tucked up and he says he has more risk of being hit by a bus than getting it damaged playing Rugby.

He is due to play in a Tsunami fund raiser captaining a NZ 15 against a world invitational side in the next few weeks. Says he's itching to play and was struggling to watch the Pub Charity Sevens.

He's training 6 days a week, 3 times a day and says he's never felt better .....

God help the other side

Excellent; get some more pics up

Off to Alaska to do some mountaineering, but a nice trip to NZ on the (long) way home could be in order
