    Thumbs up Happy Waitangi Day

    How have you celebrated our National Day?

    For me it involved a sleep in. A blessed sleep in until MY body clock decided to get out of the sack

    My lovely man cooked me eggs and bacon with some yummy tomato on the side

    Digesting that involved a walk out on the beach for 45 mins. Glorious, glorious day!

    Bought some fruit on the way home. One of my fav things to do is make jam for my wonderful Father in Law. Today I decided on Apricot and Plum (his fav), both on their own, not together, though I have not trialled that combination

    I made jam.

    Now there is a leg of sheep roasting on the BBQ, which will hopefully taste ok when it is cooked. Spuds, Kumera, Pumpkin, and Cauli/Brocoli cheese on standby to add soon

    I rang my lovely old lady as a St John caring caller earlier, I was the first person she had spoken too all day

    What a wonderful way to spend a day.

    Happy Waitangi Day you guys!

    You seem to have a way with plums. We have made up a lot of our cherries this year into jam, yummy it is to. Happy NZ day to you too mom.
    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    A loop into the North, round Opononi and Kaikohe, Waipoua Forest and Twin Bridges.

    Another 730km on the bike's odo, have to do some 1300km more to get her up to service interval, in prep for a trip south...

    Wondered if the north roads would be affected by Waitangi stuff, but nope, pretty damn quiet

    My day started early as per normal, had cereal with left over stewed fruit from the night before. Made Bacon/eggs and tomatos on muffins outside on the B-B-Q at 10am.
    We went for a nice long walk at Omaha Beach. Had a small pizza at the Bridgehouse for lunch. Treated to the lovely smell of apricots/plums cooking on the stove during the warm sunny afternoon...
    Roast lamb for tea with Ice cream and fruit to follow...


    Thanks Treaty signatories.
    I vote to Monday-ise Waitangi Day.
