Well, just call me Little Miss Sewing Machine - I've sutured 3 fingers, 2 heads and 1 hand. Luckily for me the people of Nelson are an active lot and keep on going out in that sunshine and hurting themselves.

I rented a bike on Saturday, the hills here are a complete killer, much to my embarrassment I actually had to get off my bike on one road and push it the last 20 m, which wasn't much easier - at least I've seen others doing the same thing and no they weren't all grannies. The trip back into town was easy - I literally didn't have to pedal once.

On Sunday I went for a stroll with James, a nurse in the 'Emerg', his wife Sasha and their very cute little son, Sam.

Then, I discovered Dairy Queen ...MMMmm!
