I try to keep a record of recent activities for friends and family, and anybody else who cares to take a look.

Daylight Saving
Looking forward to enjoying a bit more daylight at the end of the day.we have taken to enjoying a late afternoon stroll and a later evening meal and later tv viewing. The first photo is at our present house and the flowers in gardens along our usual route . The two little cottages are ones we owned thirty years ago not far from our present domicile.

Fathers Day
The day dawned sunny and warm so Dieter and I decided to make the most of it. Though we don't seem to get out of Auckland often these days, there Is nothing to stop us hopping on a bus and going
to another suburb for a change, as long it doesn't involve too much walking for Dieter.
We started off the day with a leisurely breakfast before driving up the road to the carpark and getting the bus down to St Patrick's Cathedral for 11am Mass. I enjoy the singing and music and join in lustily.
Trotted downtown, picking up some sandwiches before getting a slow bus along the waterfront to St Heliers . The bus was full and traffic was heavy. Spent some time at the beach before inspecting the op shop and library and having coffee and cake at a beachside cafe.
It was a beautiful Spring day and 18 degrees and time we had a bit of warmth again.
E came round in the late afternoon and I cooked a delicious meal of pork fillet roasted on a bed of onion and apple, seasoned with fresh thyme. Ran out of oomph by dessert and had the usual fruit salad and yoghurt as is my custom in such situations.
