For those of you who don't know the point of this blog (or the meaning behind its rather controversial title) let me fill you in...
Nearly two years ago in the prestigious setting of Christchurch Boys' High School a rumour quickly spread amongst the pupils that would cause much a ruckus. There was talk amongst the staff and pupils of the school of an epic overseas trip of mammoth proportions.
The rumour was soon identified as fact when the history department announced a tour of Europe, to take place in early 2009. The cry of outrage from the senior students of 2007 who would be missing out on this groundbreaking trip was enormous. However, it was easily drowned by the screams of excitment and enthusiasm uttered by the junior students of the time.
Hence, months and years of laborious planning, preparation and fundraising; over one million emails; an enormous upsurge of interest in the social sciences in CBHS; and one (soon to be) kick ass blog.
This blog is a means of communication with you, the dedicated and worried family and friends of the boys (and teachers and mums) going on this epic trip. We'll be updating you as best we can over the month that we'll be overseas.
Also, please don't be worried if the posts become less frequent. Depending on the cost and availabilty of internet during the trip, it may be hard, or sometimes impossible to update you.
If you wish to leave someone on the trip a message, simply comment on one of the posts. It may need you to create an account to do so, but this shouldn't be too hard and won't cost you anything. I'll look into this and put up a post later on how to do so.
And finally, for those of you who don't know where Europe is, here is a helpful picture. (click click!)
