Phew!

Called New Zealand Internal Affairs today and was told that yes, my new passport is ready for collection!
Yeeeeeee Haaaaaaaa!
Such a huge relief that is. Wont be missing out on visiting a new country, enjoying new food, drink and people! Also wont be missing out on two friends getting married, a christening and seeing elephants! Also wont be missing out on catching up with friends I haven't seen in six years or sensational scenery!
When I heard the news I nearly danced round the office and hugged everyone... managed to restrain myself to a couple of bounces in my chair. The smile on my face must have been incredible. And I'm sure I lost a tonne of weight off my shoulders.
I'm so happy, yay!!
