Hi,all my problems and those of every person I know wouldn’t have come close to comparing with the terrible tragedy that befell one of our very own Green Gorilla drivers last week! He was sadly killed in a horrific accident on the South Western motorway. The #1 Health and Safety goal of any company has to be to ensure their team members return safely to their family, friends and loved ones after work every day.It was indeed with great sadness and shock to all of us that one of our team was unable to do that on Monday night. It is certainly times like these when you are reminded with a jolt what is important in life and why all of us have to live every day to the fullest and without regret.

Nothing is more important than your own personal safety and we all need to accept and respect that!

Thanks to all of you who made contact and offered your condolences and support, it was appreciated.

Fletcher says; his hair stylist(barber) is a legend, his name is Peter and him and his buds are located in Durham Lane,Auckland City. Now Peter wont mind telling you he was reluctant at first  but after 10 minutes wrestling the Jones kid they were done and dusted,great doo and great mates.

Confession time; We are ‘block aholics’ and have been glued to the show for 12 weeks following the fortunes of the contestants.The final episode and auction was gripping telly with something for everyone as the houses went under the hammer! We ended up shedding a tear or two at the end as the winners Alex and Corban(from Muriwai mind you)unbelieveably gifted the wooden spooners Quinn and Ben $30,000 bucks of their $300k winnings!....WOW how cool was that?!!!We had fun getting up early on Sunday to watch the mighty AB’s take on the Scots, roll on the Welsh!

Crikey, I knew I spoke too soon about the Summer last week as we hunkered down against the Southerly over the weekend, it got so bad we even lit the fire on Saturday night….tch tch soft Jaffas!

Stay safe,well and focused on spending quality time with family and friends…………….Cheers Jonesey!

Brooks running shoes…”The perfect ride for every stride.”

 

Its that time of year again, I have nearly cut out another 1500km and my Brooks Adrenalines are screaming “enough”. My feet have burst their way through the webbing that has been attacked by the sand, salt and sea water countless times and finally said enough to the pressure and let go.

So why don’t I think twice or for a split second about what brand or where to go for a new pair?

Because;

“Every runner has a dream. A dream of the ideal run. Our job is to make it come true.

This isnt just a pair of the worlds finest running shoes.Its our passion. What you see here is the result of paradigm-shifting technologies that have been tested and re tested (again and again). Years of research on fit,ride,comfort and biomechanics,and an almost frightening obsession with every last detail.

Brooks mission is to deliver the perfect ride for every stride. Tucked with care in this box is your ‘Run Happy’ revelation.

Go set it free.”………………….. hand written on the inside of my new shoe box….how cool is that ??!!!

Yes, I am the proud owner of a new pair of Brooks Adrenalines for a flying start this Morning!!. They had me 5 years ago at ‘Run Happy’ and they have made me feel they are as interested in running and my fitness as I am and that they want me to be happy doing it ever since….and I am !!!

 

I can only hope I can instill the same belief in my customers about recycling and refuse!!!
