'Going down the Fox and Peanut?'

So, last night we got the sake in like a couple of big lads and decided to hit the town with some fellow work associates. Went to the same bar of Ben's last triumph of wit to try and reel in some more punters, when who should we see? None other that the infamous PAPER MARIO!!!! (see blog entry 2 for further details). Clearly this is a sign from the heavens that it was meant to be between Ben and P.M. Not only this but she is here for the whole season, plenty of time for the poetry to unfurl....however another drawback (asides from being invisible for 2 days a year) is that she's Australian - will keep you posted on developments.

Today as part of training to make us all round adventure mountain men, we have been whitewater rafting and ab sailing so we can bang on about how great these activities are to potential customers. This, however is bollocks as both these activities are undertaken in the snow at about minus 10. So after clocking in at 8 in the morning, it was a quick vomit then straight out for rafting. In the moments when I wasn't trying desperately not to get frostbite in my toes and fighting the urge to be sick, it was quite cool. I puked a further 3 times during the day (one out of a moving car) which is clearly a good thing to do on your second day of 'work'.

In other news, local army-nut Darrell decided to try and fit a wire coat hanger over his body to show off about his caving skills or some such nonsense. After a good 10 minutes of gyrating he gave up halfway through amid torrents of laughter. Let's hope there's a rematch.

That's all for now, feeling like crap which means this post is probably below even my usual sub par standards.
