Chicken-LIcken

There seems to no end to the jet boat/jet ski disasters. Having watched them racing around Lake Wanaka without too much care and attention, skiers clinging on to the back and jet skis zig-zagging about, it's no wonder that when it happens on the rivers, disaster befalls. These past weeks there has been a death or two in the papers each week. I will not be bungy jumping, jet-skiing , jet boating, heli-biking, para-gliding or ski diving. A wee run round Mt Iron every now and then will be fine. It's bad enough getting on a regular plane. Driving to the plane will be dangerous too. Lot's of accidents on the roads. And Spook has just purchased me a road bike. How dangerous is THAT?
And people lost in the mountians. Best not go there iether. Just as well this is a nice wee town. And it's easier to cross the road now.
