friends

i went to the marvellous breakfast club last friday thanks to russell reminding me it was on.  jolly good chat, although i feared for retinas sitting opposite these three t-shirts and the yellow wall.

it’s interest to note your modern fashionable man has wires coming out of his shoulders.

possibly one of the nicest and most laid back people on the planet

here my fellow photoing chum richard.

here is bnug and wife who went beyond the call of duty to make us feel welcome when we visited auckland last month.  as did their children (seen bouncing below with esther and kezia)

we’ve had quite a social few days – jane’s sister and family stayed for a few days and last night we went to our god-daughter’s birthday party at tgi friday.  very good it was too

i had lunch with long time blog reader and international singing superstar Brad.  he was over in london for work.  We had a really great lunch and it was great to meet in real life after like 3 years or something.  i think he’s in this video if you want to see him in action

richard was our weekend host with the most

we went on a fantastic fresh walk on saturday (just got round to sorting the pictures).  fantastic weather and company.  even a geocache (and a jolly dog)

rascle sent me this photo from his visit on saturday evening.  i’ve funkified it a little !

i did another photoshoot at the weekend, although in a slightly different style to last time.  i really enjoyed it and i’m pleased with the results (as are the relatives of the little chap i photoed as he went about his business).

let me know if you’d like the funkypancake photoshoot experience !

we had mr rascle family round for dinner yesterday evening.  we had a great time.  here we are playing rumikub.

there is some video footage as well which i’ll share with you when i find a mo to edit it.

they even did their own washing up !

these are brilliant devices. you sit on them and have a row with your partner.  and the machine decides who is right.

(the two photos above were taken by kezia who’s getting a bit of a dab hand at photoing)

what has terry seen ?

there’s a pun in here somewhere …

we went to a lovely 18th b-day party yesterday.  here’s the birthday girl plus mum and dad inspecting some of the photos
