Quick life update

Just an aside as to what's been happening:
* I haven't been training
* J has (sort of) for a triathlon in January
* Been to the gym a bit, and have made it back to 70kg
* Want (don't need) new car audio stuff, like
* Infinity Ref component speakers
* Rockford Fosgate P1 subwoofer
* PowerBass Extreme components?
* Want some new cds
* Not going away for Christmas
* Saw Adalia last night, she's growing up fast. 4 months old now.
* Want (don't need) a new mountain bike
* Want (don't need) a new road bike
* Want (don't need) a few things fixed on the car. Like, new rocker cover gaskets, new rear shocks, new water pump, new cambelt, new engine mounts. Next service (200km) should be a cracker.
* Want (don't need) a new job.

Lets drag this out a bit ...

It's now December, traditionally the month for sun, sand, surf and drunken teenagers all around the Coromandel. Only, this year summer has gone on holiday, and winter's decided to have another go. It hailed severely over the weekend, especially on Sunday, when we were driving to the Sky City bus station to drop Tiffy off.
In fact, it was like driving in snow - you could clearly see the tracks of cars in front of you, and at one stage I floored it in second gear to see what would happen. All four wheels started to spin ...
As Dan says, maybe it's a little judgment on a country that has by and large decided it has had enough of anything divine.
