Queen B

Well October had been and gone and no postings. Busy, busy with work meetings and a mounting pile of work realting to each meeting, plus travelling to both Dunedin and Auckland during October formore meetings, so heaps of excuses. I do enjoy reading everyone's else blog though.

Today has been a big catch up day which has been great. The weather started off sunny and warm but rather windy, then rapidly deteriorated to a grey, cool and extremely windy unpleasant day. The washing all got done however, even drawers tidied, linen cupboard tidied plus I spoke on the phone to Milky and her friend Ulrika in Sweden this morning as they were about to scoff more "Princess Cake". (No doubt Milky will explain in great detail in her blog what this Cake consisted of)

Its Frieworks Night here tonight. A major display was organised for the city and was done from a barge in the harbour just off Queens Wharf. I went for the easy option - stayed home to ensure the beloved Grandcat Darsha was safe inside as it was her first city fireworks night since she was a kitten, and watched the display from my lounge window. Couldn't see it all but I certainly saw some beautiful fireworks and even better I didn't have to battle the traffic there and back or even worse try and find a park.

Time for bed now, seems like all the fireworks around the suburb have finished (or that may well be famous last words).

Thank you Stan for fixing up my blog - you are a star.

Happy Birthday Charlotte - hope you have had a great day.
