author of walks
this chap wrote a little book on walks and wanders round getting people to get excited about walking. that's a great thing.
i've a shirt like his. mine is red
two heads are better than one
his and hers dog head poo bins
spinach and feta muffin
i am daily shocked by this savoury muffin concept. not right.
bollard under the bus timetable
looks like this sign is dragging itself out of the ground
opening things
i love opening a new box of weet-bix
i like to use the flat end of a spoon
but the real delight is lifting the gentle plastic flaps to reveal the perfect line of weet-bix biscuits.
later that same day i opened a new box of breakfast bars at work
i only had an imported british biro
the result wasn't nearly as satisfying
home from home
we live quite near a national sporting institute place so we often bump in to national sporting icons (i've seen gold olympian valerie adams a few times)
yesterday there were a few more as a number of NZ olympians were there for a meet and greet (swimmers and a couple of cyclists i think)
they'd done the place up in a london-esque way which was quite amusing
but they'd made it slightly too authentic with ripped posters in the phone box
and dirty windows (all part of the cardboard cutout print thing)
and the underground sign was also printed deliberately dirty. great stuff
a few things struck me: they all seemed like really nice people who were keen for a chat
and there was no security or attempt to 'control' their appearance. they were just great kiwi guys and girls hanging out with the public (behind a big long white table!)
the national TV news turned up but even that was uneventful. no security. no bother.
sweet as !

land of the long white cloud
family portrait
rare picture of the funkpancake clan on holiday
wedding photographers
here's some wedding photos going on
on closer inspection the bride was photographing the groom and vice versa
good thinking the official photographer to outsource some of his work
thank you for wiping your feet
something's not right with those toes
floaty dog owners
a classic. but great
autumn
autumn has finally arrived in auckland just as we role in to winter
not that you notice as most trees are evergreens. but some aren't
sweeping up leaves
dirt is what makes the countryside the countryside. don't try and sweep it up.
what kind of staff?
japanese, chinese and korean. that's what kind
under the jet boat
these things just go along on teeny wheels
bashed up mannequin
i've commented before on the new zealand lover (or toleration) of bashed up mannequins. here's a classic example
gate out of order
good use of equals signs
trees
some of the trees are slightly upside down
spooky cardboard sign
she was obviously cut out for the job.
