Day Zero

It has again become time for the yearly White Ribbon Ride. Last year I did the North Island ride and when going up I travelled the East Wind (see here http://petewhiteribbon2010.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-2010-white-ribbon-ride-by-pete.html ).

This year South Island has been added, and I thought it would be abrilliant idea to do this ride.

Day Zero (Thursday 16 November) I spent at work until 8.30pm. Soo much to sort out as I would be away for just over a week. There was meetings, training course, farwell lunch for one of our Managers, paperwork galore (I am sure that when I was six I did not plan to sit in a office doing paperwork when I grew up...) and a Board meeting. Then quickly past Pack-N-Save to buy food for my boys while I am away. And then the cheat: Maccas for late dinner... But the boys thought that was a brilliant idea!

I put them to bed at 10pm and I started packing, completing some last minute tasks and making sure nothing had ben forgotten.

At 4am I had enough and jumped to bed. I would have time to sort whatever I had forgotten in the morning.
