 Hi Jo,

It is great to hear from you. It is a long time since 2001 !!  I now live in Roimata in Chrstchurch. We are beginning to create a transition town here. I have a big garden, chooks etc. And am somewhat preoccupied with toilets- given the earthquake.

No, I won't be going to the Hui- Too many other things on.
