He's here !

The human whirlwind that is Stan has arrived.

Can you imagine how frustrating it is being at work all day, knowing that your
chum is at home & you have to do an 11 hour day before you can get your hug ?

The 20 minute drive home seemed interminable.

I got out of the car, made my way to the deck & there he was in all
his glory. Open shirt, shorts, piercings galore, silly hat.

I said Good Afternoon to Eric then went to find Stan.

One huge hug later & I was transported back to a May evening in Hersham.

Shortly after & I was being swamped with goodies & cards & the best ever
t-shirt.



'Tell dem how you feeeeel'



' Does my my bum look big in this ?'

Thank you to everyone who signed & special thanks to the music providers
Hitman & Tony. Can't wait to listen to uplifting trance, cheers Tone.

Thanks Mia for the neddy, he will keep me safe from the real ones.

The special delivery from Heathrow was received safely.



Muffin Time

We talked on the deck before dinner (he talked, I listened, not often I say that)
& then sat down to a lovely dinner with the Tanners.

They have gone to bed now as they got up at 0330 to collect Uncle Stinley
from the airport. Stan has disappeared too for that matter (shower ?).
I am sorry if this rambles & is a bit disjointed, trying to finish it so I can
ring my Mum.

Hoping to go see 'him' in Return of the King tomorrow, will go to cinema at
lunchtime & try & beat the rush for tickets in the evening.

Michelle reports that tickets are very scarce so will try & get Stan on-line.
Something tells me Te Awamutu may not be on-line ?

Enough for now,

thanks again to everyone for all the messages brought with Stan

STRE - Cyprus coin & coke machine, remind me again of the context, it's
ringing hazy bells ?

Stu - How did the interview go ?
