Waitangi Day

Today we had a street barbecue and Wellington even turned on a calm, sunny day. The neighbours dragged their barbecues and picnic tables to the carpark opposite my house and we had a fine time chatting, eating and getting to know each other. It's handy that one side of our street is a park as it's a nice setting for an outdoor get together.

toonqHi Carolyn was great to hear from you and looks as though you are getting to know your neighbors. I am heading off to Wharepapa South, Otorohanga South to teach fabric and also Puahue, so much for retiring! Enjoy your time in Wellington.

Hi Carolyn,
Best to you in this new adventure! And I have to say, the barbecue event looks very tempting - I'll have to come down there and try it for myself!

How civilised! It looks as though you have fallen on your feet into a very friendly and well organised neighbourhood. Community spirit at its best!
