I'm an Engineer working in Tyne and Wear, having moved from Belfast 3 years ago. Before the move I had never lived away from home and have had to work alot of things out for myself. I'm a big fan of Ice Hockey, in particular my team the Belfast Giants who I travel to see all over the UK. I also have a beautiful fiancee Victoria with whom I live in Gateshead.

Now Yer Whistlin!
Today was a lazy day... big hangover and the previous night was disected. I will not go into details.
We rented a few bikes and made our way into town. Whistler seems to be a very rich town, preparing for the Olympics in 2010. Its all alpine architecture with towering snow capped mountains. A nice, if expensive, place to visit.
We took a walk around the town in the sunshine before jumping on our bikes and headin out for lunch by the near-by lake. It was so warm we grabbed our swimming gear and jumped in for a swim. We ve now come back to the hostel for dinner and a few beers, i think today needed to be a relaxin day...
