so the beautiful val and i just got back from a rad and timely botswana trip with good friends dreadlock mike and nancy the twin and also some friends of theirs (brent, zeldy, norm and kate) and have some incredible memories of a stunning, stunning place we were really spoilt with the animal sightings - elephant (including the smallest baby elephants i have ever seen), giraffe, wildebeest (including the lesser known pussybeest and the lonely [...]
so there is a new campaign in town and apart from some silliness like the whole main thrust of it being that if you don't like coffee you are okay, i thort (hi lisa) that it was very well written and even contained moments of humourous - my friend simon from the brothers streep wrote it and is a very funny guy who occasionally constructs pirate ships out of lego (possibly other substances too, but [...]
