thought i’d take my turn at writing the daily blog today. I took the picture above in Auckland yesterday afternoon. Apparently all will be revealed on the 22nd November. But i recon I can already guess what it’s going to be: a giant father christmas perhaps ?
I was in that part of town as I’d just spend 2 hours in a Telecom Retail Shop ‘meeting and greeting’ members of the kiwi public so i could learn what it’s like at the coal face. It was hard work, and i was glad to be back to my desk today.
jane mentioned i went to the doctors yesterday. i’ve been having pains that felt like either an ear infection or wisdom teeth. so i paid my £25 quid (approx) for a doctors appointment and came home with some subsidised neurofen, and various hayfever sprays/tablets etc. and the ear pain is some virus which will hopefully go away in a day or two. hoorah.
the docs is very fancy and has its own cafe. and a burger king (just off to the right of this picture) to drum up more trade i suspect.
The pharmacy lady said it was open 8am to 8pm every day of the year including christmas which is handy. And here’s that KFC which is open on xmas day too.
we went out for an evening constitutional stroll after tea. esther was our tour guide
here’s kezia and jane’s legs
and here’s the creek on the other side of the hilly bit where we live.
oh, and we’re getting to know the insect life a little better. here are some ants on the window devouring some bird poo. nice.
