It is a shame I am not currently in NZ and therefore missed the official day 1 of the Parnell Roastery. Amanda kept in touch with emails, Donna with some sms texts and emails. All the hardwork in getting the place up to scratch is behind us, all the hardwork to build a viable Indonesian Specialty Coffee roasting business- in front of us.

In many ways I am missing the cool, crisp Auckland days. The blue sky, the ferry from dwn to Devonport. The friendliness of our new neighbours (thanks Nick :)), the lack of polution, traffic and the non existent maddening crowds. Indonesia though always welcoes you back- abeit very briefly before heading off for a couple more projects.

Some say I have actually cloned myself...others report I have gown an extra set of arms. Honestly? I dont know how I squeeze everything in! Actually wanted to talk to you about two things- one, I have to head down to NZ again around (+/-) first week July. I may try and stopover in Melbourne- are you going to be around? Second... well that can wait.
