Back "home" in Whangas

 Working through things I need to do...post one of my prints to friends in Titirangi....

Choose cards to.post to grandies...two chosen, two to go...

Buy a sports bra in the Warehouse.... comfort!!!!

I walked to the shops early afternoon and had time for a long black and a brownie....the last one in the cabinet seemed to just be there for me!!

And why shouldn't a Waka have an outboard motor?!!

The base of that palm tree is not much higher than the riverbank....now that it sticks up higher it is being affected by the wind from the sea!!

Back to the Stayplace, just 20 minutes walk (today's exercise!) and off with friends..the intention had been to go out to another friend's house...but she is also on call with the fire service as a trained volunteer and there was a large chemical (ammonia apparently) spillage at a dry cleaning place so she ended up helping coordinate communication between teams...and organising food for them all.. over thirty firemen (and women) in the end including a specialist unit from Palmerston North over an hour away.

So back their house in Aramoho for a relaxing afternoon and supper together.

We get on so well...and I'm fitting in well.. its a shame I have to go back to Scotland!! 

However there are plans to come again....

Alice through the looking glass?!

As it is still 18⁰C now at 10.30pm ( it was at least 28 this afternoon) I have started sorting things to pass on to others to use, and what I need to take back to Scotland...thinking of weight....
