Yep, we went on our first visit to NZ. Being an volcano freak i had a whale of a time. Adie suffered a bit due to the sulphur playing his asthma up, but you get issued with gas masks and hard hats, and very sexy they are too! You will have to check with the company the night before you go as the weather can be very temperamental. Would thoroughly recommend it though.

PS Where's the spell check gone?

Jack if you and Mrs Daws! see this tonight, just wanted to say have a good journey to NZ, you're sure to have a fantastic time, don't forget the piccies and I'm sure you'll make a lot of new friends too.

The one piece of advice to remember tho is try NOT to convert your dollars back to pounds, I know its really difficult to do but if you wanna know what life is gonna be like, unless you got 5 numbers Friday ( my no. is 019.... if you did!! ) then its the only way to go.....
