Here is a small collection of our shipping. 

Stuart's prize winning Tracey island made from recycled goods!!!!!. He was chuffed with his winning $6, which included the prize for the junior with the most points. He gracously shared this ( well a $1) with Paddy ,who came in an honarble 3rd, (as 3rd got no prize) 

Another clear day at Diggers Valley. A wonderful evening was had , which included a BBQ, G&T, a swim in the water hole, and a visit to the glow worms- not necessarly in that order. Our thanks to our hosts Stepen and Ruth. (and spice). And as you can see our tent has also made the journey. 

Wow! What a week.

Wow, what ha busy week.
First off Tuesday, at long last the shipping arrived. So it was Christmas for everyone. It was a joy to eat of proper plates ,drink from proper mugs and use proper cutlery. Everything is in one piece- TV, computer , bikes, glasses,DVD etc. WELL DONE ATLAS REMOVALS OF MORCAMBE. The only down side was the dissapearance of the entire box of fishing equipment. Well, the rods and reels arrived ok, but there was a fishing box full of tackle, some which were gifts from Great grandad to Eric, and some untried stuff from Arran. I has spent a whole day cleaning and sifting out old stuff. We can only assume that the lot has been disposed of by MAF.

On a lighter note the weather has remained great , so lots of out door activites and swimming.

Kaitaia A&P show was on as well this weekend. It's a popular local event held on the show ground ,just as you enter the town. Stuart and Paddy decided to enter which various versions of Tracy island. And to our delight Stuart won in catogory for recycled things ,and Paddy came in 3rd. We are proud!!!!!!.
Then on Saturday late afternoon, after sorting out the last of the boxes, we took our tent off to Diggers valley and enjoyed a night there.
