Hi guys and gals!
It's the fairygirl just dropping by to say hi and let you all know that I am alive and well! Not sure if any of you noticed, but I have been a tad quiet of late! hehe... Fact is, I unsubscribed in early December to allow for my relocation to Brisbane and things are now going along swimmingly. I see that there are a few new faces around so welcome and hello to you too! Some of you may remember that I mentioned late last year that my new partner and I will be doing a bike ride from Brisbane to Perth (5700kms in 40 days!) this year? Well, it is all VERY full on. We have gained some huge sponsorship deals (Telstra, Cannondale, Woolworths to name a few), and are now in HEAVY training. We are currently on our bikes for a few hours a day, carving up the roads around Brissy and covering around 100kms per day in our preparations. We have press releases and television appearances coming up and those of you in Australia can expect to see us on Good Morning Australia (with Bert Newton), Rove, Channel Ten weather reports and possibly the Panel. We are also going to appear on the Breakfast show with Merrick and Rosso! wooohoo! Upon our arrival in Perth the West Coast Eagles (footy team) will be jogging along side of us! It is all so very full on! So yep, as usual, I am busy, busy, and oh, yeah, managing to take a few pics here and there (hehe). My *ist D has captured well over the 20,000 frame mark now, and still going strong. I have SO many weddings this year already, and it is even harder due to the fact that June, July and August will be out on account of our bike ride. We are also planning a bike ride through Mongolia and a hike on the Great Wall of China (early 2006), so I'm pretty certain that unfortunately, I won't be able to make GFM this year! hehe. Plenty of photo ops ahead of me though, and yes, I really should stop being so slack and start contributing to the PUG again. On the home front, things are going great. My new guy is fantastic and my kids adore him. They go back to school on Monday, so hopefully I will have a little more time on my hands soon and will be able to work more efficiently. Hell, I may even get to contribute to the PDML again from time to time! hugs, tan.x.
