A little news for the week

 

Well it has been very quiet over the last week. The weather hasn't been too bad, but cold of course, so it is nicer to stay indoors and hibernate. It's winter what else do we expect. Then we complain it is too hot in summer. We are a contrary lot. 

There was a good frost this morning. On frosty mornings we use the water in our water tank as the hose from the tap is usually frozen. It hasn't defrosted yet and it is nearly 10. The frost has gone though and it is a lovely sunny day. 

Swaps have asked Eddie if he would consider going to Taupo for the road work season at the end of August. He has found us a place to stay at the National Equestrian Centre for a reasonable rent. We are just waiting to see if it will happen. It will mean we will be there until about March, so we would be able to go north before it got too cold. He is hoping to get some more information today.

The starlings are already making a claim in our goose neck as a nesting site and putting grass in it ready for a nest. They must have been really pleased to see us back again. They are going to be very disappointed if we go to Taupo.
