He only went out for some milk

A blurb of monstrous proportions - it was only supposed to be a couple of lines and the odd photo.

Goodbyes and Jail

I've done it this time...

I've done it this time...

I never thought I'd end up here - I've obviously been a bad boy: riding motorbikes without a licence, speeding, not paying parking tickets, being devilishly handsome (OK that's stetching it) and being very selfish.

The month with Tony went very quickly and it went better than i expected.  I'm used to living predominantly alone and I'm used to travelling predominantly alone.  For a long time with travelling I've been very much the boss; enjoying a 'freedom' most people can only dream of.  It's fair to say we had our ups-and-downs (sounding like a married couple now) - a down being when Tony went for a walk in the morning and then decided to keep going - not being sure he wanted to go back to me and my morning blues.  At times i could also see what could be called my bad behaviour reflected in his eyes; whether it be my too close to the bone piss taking or my hogging of the wine for example.  Overall though it has been a great month and I'm going to miss my travel companion and his milk fetish.

So it's time for a self imposed 'exile'.  I'm off to Stewart Island for a while.  Long walks, wildlife, huts with no electricity, no hot water and no showers...
