		<description><![CDATA[For those of you who don&#8217;t know, I created a new blog in 2019 and started posting there. I embarked on a mission to walk the length of New Zealand &#8211; 3,000km! It is known as Te Araroa &#8211; New Zealand&#8217;s &#8220;long pathway&#8221;. Check out how I did here.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone! Well I&#8217;ve just moved all my web hosting to a new server, so I thought I&#8217;d write this post since it has been a very long time since my last post. I have been living back in New Zealand since 2013. First Wellington and now Auckland. With the advent of Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[GA guys, There&#8217;s something that&#8217;s been bugging me at work and I wonder if it&#8217;s just me.  When people in the workplace are writing on their PC, either in email or in some kind of instant messaging, they always use abbreviations like &#8220;ga&#8221; for good afternoon, &#8220;gm&#8221; for good morning&#8221;, &#8220;pl&#8221; or &#8220;plz&#8221; for please and &#8220;tx&#8221; or &#8220;ty&#8221; [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been on a diet since August and since I&#8217;d been doing so well this week and last, I decided to treat myself to Shakeaway which is my favourite milkshake place.

Actually, I&#8217;ve been here five and a half years, but the first half a year was on a Working Holiday visa and so didn&#8217;t count. A month ago I booked an appointment for 3:30pm for today&#8217;s date [...]]]></description>
