The Seinfeld Marathon

Besides the 100K in 14 days challenge Hania and I completed another marathon. We finished the whole 9 series of Seinfeld. I leave you with this because its buzzing around my head for days now, you might as well have it too.

First New Zealand Visit

I first visited New Zealand in 1979 and again in 1980 but I’m not sure that I have photos, maybe somewhere. Of course it was a totally different experience then, a long trip too. Returning on BA 001 took something like 30 hours with stops (no getting off) in Sydney, Perth, Bombay and Frankfurt as […]

Post-lockdown

So the blog will become a bit more intermittent as we exit lockdown and will have reasonable freedom to move around now. I can even play tennis again. Ana, Vicky and I completed our 100km in 14 days today. Mike took a photo but I don’t have it yet. We know every street in the […]

Lockdown Day 46

Just Another Sunday in Godzone Big walk this morning, Pirongia Mountain Nikau loop track. We did walk to the shop and back as well so nearly 11km today in pursuit of our 100km in 14 days. We are still officially at Level 3 lockdown but as it has been over 10 days so hopefully tomorrow […]

Fog in the morning but cleared up to be a beautiful day. We walked around Ngaaroto again.

Lockdown Day 44

A week or two back Mike, Vicky and I joined sharesies at Mike’s suggestion. We’ve all invested in shares we think will grow (it’s a stock market app). So far we are breaking even with some good and some bad choices. Did I say bad? I meant shares with future long-term growth potential of course. […]

Lockdown Day 43

Today we saw the outline of Level 2 restrictions. We can meet with people outside of our bubble. The key thing is that they be traceable, just in case. Therefore I think I will be able to play tennis again. We will be able to travel outside our regions so can holiday in New Zealand […]

Lockdown Day 42

The usual walk. We’ve played eye-spy a lot on our recent walks and we are running out of new things to spy. So Ana had the bright idea of C for Crackly leaves. I mean it’s pretty good in one way but we did have a problem explaining how that wasn’t really fair – using […]

Lockdown Day 41

So the deck is all finished and the worker is just cleaning up. Meanwhile I’ve also been busy. To be fair I also ordered materials today to finish the deck with a brick mowing strip and to re-seed the lawn (well, grass). We also went for a 7.5km walk including 10 circuits of the redoubt.

Lockdown Day 40

Still struggling on with it. One of the issues I discovered (apart from the picture being put diagonally on the box and running down the sides) is that the picture on the box doesn’t exactly match the puzzle anyway. Nice one. Front deck finished but no picture yet, still needs a good clean with the […]
