as christmassy as it gets
the bakery attempts to be christmassy
we heart movies
they need that asterisk. although they probably should have written the word asterisk out long hand too.
a plate of reminiscence
we used to have plates like this when i was a kid i think. i’d totally forgotten until i received my afternoon tea on one at a cafe somewhere
me in a pub
here’s me in a bar in Wellington from a week or so back. taken by my good friend eugene. not only is he a great guy, he also has a great name !
born to fish
this bill board always makes me chuckle
please do not feed the birds
please take care in the wet
as kiwi as
a bbq at the beach in summer on a hot day under a pohutakawa tree. it doesn’t get much more kiwi than that.
moving tree
this is exciting – it’s a dead tree in a plant pot down on the viaduct. and it’s working its way down the pathway
it had reached the pedestrian crossing by friday morning
evil santa mannequin
glad to see the evil mannequin is making an effort as it’s christmas
where’s the fire ?
a fire alarm in a car park provided two excellent photo opportunities. and no deaths. good.
big stunts, little plane
this plane was doing some amazing stunts over browns bay at the weekend
it kept buzzing in to the crowd and eventually landed on the beach after it’s excellent display
only then did i realise it was actually a large remote control plane. still pretty mad all the same.
sunny sunday afternoon
i know this is the last thing you northern hemisphericals will want to hear, but it’s lovely down here. i tell you not to gloat, but because i’m a brit and love to talk about the weather.
if it’s any consolation it really doesn’t feel christmassy here one little bit !
sorry
it’s taken me over a year to finally get a picture of a bus showing the word ‘sorry’. it’s such a good word to have on a bus and it’s a common sight. so it was nice to see this one sorry and parked so i could grab you a photo.
sorry it’s taken so long.
making whale’s dreams come true
i’ve no idea what whales dream of. probably plankton
camera migration
i bought a new camera today. a canon s95. same as the G12 inside, but more pocket ready which helps me look less nerdy when wearing it at work.
and so my trusty old 850IS goes in to partial retirement after 4 years sterling work.
i think the 850IS will become my ‘danger’ camera for places where there is a risk of water and sand which are both quite common here in new zealand (due to all the beaches and the occasional completely mad rain shower). it’s in danger of stopping working at any moment, so i’ll treat them both gently. don’t worry about that.
