I have crossed over to the dark side

Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

It is official… I have crossed over and finally got myself an Apple Mac, and a cool looking black one at that. The great thing about it is (as you would have seen from the TV ads) it comes with a built in camera. This means that were I am or wherever I go I can now do VIDEO blog posts… which I am sure will be lots of fun.

Oh and by the way I had to get the 24-inch screen, wireless mouse and a wireless key board. In case anyone reading this works at the tax department, I use it to edit books, which is why I need the big screen. (hehe)

Seriously looking forward to sending you many more updates from this little set up.

Skiing in New Zealand - IN JANUARY!

Monday, February 5th, 2007

A few days ago I was in New Zealand, presenting a series of Goal Setting Seminars and Workshops. First was Wellington, then Christchurch and onto Auckland. It was a real privilege and I had some great feedback from the audience!

Also while there, my wife and I went to an indoor ski centre called ‘Snowplanet’ with our beautiful Kiwi friends, Simon and Yvonne Godfrey. Built on the side of a hill in a sort of farm area (20 minutes from the Auckland CBD), the slop is 202 meters long and has an indoor temperature of minus five degrees Celsius, 365-days a year.

Talking of setting goals, as Katherine and I have never been to a ski field ever, we have decided that this is going to be our year to learn to ski - actually snowboard in fact. As we were short of time and couldn’t have a lesson, we hit the slop anyway for what they call ‘air boarding’. It is basically when you lay or kneel on a small inflatable mattress and you travel down the slop, accelerating as you go over some hills and bumps. Anyway, it was a lot of fun and we have vowed to return in April for some serious lessons, followed by a week at the snow fields later in the year.
