• Good news: my codex has arrived in Sydney
• Bad news: I’m in NZ

Oh wait, that’s wrong, it’s a bummer that the book is in Sydney and I can’t pick it up til I return in a few days. However today I had the pleasure of driving from Rotorua to Palmerston North. The drive included the Desert Road which was simply divine…I love driving in NZ. I like these work trips where I get to visit such lovely places, it’s a bit like being on holiday but more tiring…hmmm admittedly even my holidays are rarely relaxing.
