Yesterday we were running a bit low on essentials so Jean decided to walk to the corner dairy and pick some stuff up. It’s a great walk, even dodging the traffic on the narrow road is a sport in its own right. Here she is returning triumphant with milk, eggs, wine and beer. She forgot the tonic, bugger.
La dolce far niente 
Hi Mate,
Amazingly your posts are now coming into me via outlook.co.nz. Seems since I closed extra mail, this is now the default mechanism. Some of the pix are not there but I get all the words so that is better than nothing.
When are you scheduled to arrive back in New Zealand?
Cheers from Geoff and Claire..
Hey bro, we’re back in Wellie 11 September. Still a week and a half to go. High five. Ciao G
