We have had a fairly quiet Easter until Monday when Mike Mexted arrived in the morning not long after we had got out of bed, just before 8. He was out on his bike for a ride. (Bicycle not motorcycle). He had a coffee with us and invited us to his place for lunch. We had a nice time with them, his sister and brother in law and another friend.
The camping ground hasn’t been as busy as it might have been because of the wet weather.
The weather wasn’t too bad here. We have had stronger winds in the Wairarapa on an ordinary day. We did have a lot of rain though. The ants have decided our caravan is nicer than a nest in the sand. We found them marching around the edge of the ceiling where it meets the wall. They came in the back somewhere and went all around the van. We caught them just before they got to the pantry. Lucky. One of the campers told Eddie that they had ants all through their tent. They weren’t very happy.
Eddie started work yesterday. He had to find his overalls, his travel mug and his boots. Luckily they weren't too hard to find. At least in a caravan there aren't many places to look ha ha. On Saturday, we went to the yard and met his new boss for the first time. Eddie had just had an interview on the phone. Josh said you sound like the most sensible of all the people who have rung me, you have the job.
He enjoyed his day yesterday and said the men were all very nice. He was very tired though.
One of the campers have got a huge white screen beside their tent. We could see that they were watching something on it last night. The joys of modern camping.
The photo above was taken at Kaitoke. It is three totara trees and are a memorial for Norman Kirk.
