Sunday morning (VERY bloody early...insomniac melon again) in the land of Aotearoa and Bro'town....Haven't been able to get on all week as the dearly beloved had taken the 'pooter to Whangerei with him for workiepoos, so if anyone needs hugs and love that I don't know about, then please take them in generous amounts dearhearts:h
I have had a tiring, but enjoyable as always, work week, and a luvverly start to my weekend yesterday when we went up to the Whangaparoa penninsula for a trot around the gypsies, tinkers and travellers fair, and then a big fat walk with the hell hound along Orewa beach.
Even though Autumn is crawling in, Mr Sunshine had his top hat on and was beaming down on all and sundry so it was perfect......I very nearly bought an alpaca poncho in a gorgeous shade of olive green, but then remembered that it never gets cold enough to wear more than a thin sweater here so my beautiful purchase would just have gone smelly with damp in my wardrobe....it was beautiful though...I think I may have to move next door to MikeupNorth and then I can wear stuff like that all the time
The walk along the beach was heavenly...from where we are, we see the towering shape of Mt Rangitoto rising up out of the blue.....a view I would certainly miss if we ever had to leave here....Rangi is an active volcano with a very distinctive shape that is pretty much an emblem of this area, and that, and the other few islands that are dotted around, certainly make for an interesting vista as you cast your peepers horizonwards....Gosh I'm a lucky bint!!!
Seeing as we enjoyed ourselves so much yesterday, we now have to pop our hair shirts on once more and pay penance through self flagellation with the contents of the laundry pile, and the tortured pilgrims weeding of the front section....I may also be forced to take a vacuum to the front room too....I could fashion my own alpaca poncho out of the hair that the hell hound has felt necessary to deposit everywhere in a lively fashion...we are pretty much wading through it up to our ankles.....aaaahhhhhh......wot a luvverly hygenic household I keep:H
Have a great weekend treasures....I know many of you are just starting yours.....
Lots of luvvity luvvy love......Weehirsutemelon xxx
