Friday to Sunday night project, good times in Welly

Starting on a more serious note, my lovers...
Opening of Parliament, 2008, with the incoming Key Government. Can't help feeling it very strange the country voting in an Ex city trader just when we're told the world is going tits up due to people like him and their activities... curious NZ :)


Ah, Ritchie finally meets his perfect mate!

A few holes pot, no need to elaborate I think. Later came along a Wellingtonian cum Chicago cum Palm Strings mystery trio! but that's not for here...




In the dude magnet.. supposedly...

Also I discovered Friday, now Sunday night project this weekend, a bit behind my UK shipmates, and now I understand why that Mr Carr and Lee whatsit are such a comedy cult.. i love it, init.

Oo oo, also saw two films; One awful - The Day The Earth Stood Still or what ever its called, its just awful, which is a shame coz I love Scifi. The Other was right fab - RockNRolla! Woohoo!

My little back patch... I'm not sure what I'm doing with the netting.. it was to keep cats off but now it's just erect! heyhoo..


I started planting here at last woohoo.. haven't got much space in the new place, but its better than nowt, aye!




Solenum Quitoense (Naranjilla), I love the leaves, can you guess why, huh? huh?

Yahoo boyos! There's Jezza and Jule, up to their old tricks! Oh so many tricks.. but that's not for here, hahaha.


Mmm it's been a while since I fingered such a lovely pussy, but I can say I really enjoyed it, and helped pass the time whilst I knibbled some buns :)

Last day at Hot Water Beach

So, you can skip the beached whale jokes, and don't be fooled by the next picture and think that paulie dug this hole, oh no, we actually nicked it from a vacating couple, as our first attempt was a little late with the tide coming in.. mmm, but lovely steamy tum burning hot! woohoo!




What a wonderful last few moments of this week away. Although the frickin' phone decided not to take a picture until they had mostly disappeared, we saw this pod of dolphins swim in and out of the bay, really awesome to watch and left us such a warm feeling on leaving this stunning place :)

In Hot Water again

No photos as I seem to be leaving my phone at the bach the time, saw this bugger this morning when dipping my feet in the hot thermals on the beach, ugly and beautiful:
Eagle Ray, although I think it was a New Zealand Eagle Ray, which might be a little different :)

Linda, mi ex y su marido encantador

Fui a casa de Tony y Rick en Greenwich. Linda, mi primera suegra y ademas mujer divina estaba ahí también y comemos en el jardín donde han sembrado un césped de manzanilla de verdad! qué inglés! jaja.



En casa hacia un calor como un verano de España así que fuimos a dar un paseo al perro por el parque.

Nottingham Saint someone, probably a Mary



Popped up t'see Tyson and Martyn for an evening, ending up in a church after a lovely breakfast mmm, can't remember the name, maybe I'll wiki it, ever reliable aren't I! haha

The Mud Princesses

Had a lovely day down at Mersea Island with my sister and two nieces. Had a picnic, walked out to the sea, the tide just on the turn. Dug for some worms and generally got dirty! yeah!


Also bumped into Sarah with her friend and their kids, which was very nice. Her George ended up lookin' like a mini extra from rambo, head-to-toe mud. I was kinda jealous but I don't think it would have been so cute on a (supposed) adult.

Anyhow, We all got the mud pack treatments! hahaha

We used to spend the summers down here in the caravan, water skiings and generally playing the whole tide in and out of the water - lovely memories - mmm although this is where I had a bike accident which ruptured my appendix and left me with my only scar that I hate.

Funny how you can go somewhere 20 years on and still have that feeling :)

Andando en bici por el Támesis

un jardín secreto, espectacular, no? y por el centro de la ciudad, pues, en Putney.

Un poco mas allá queda la puente del mismo nombre donde nacio mi papa en 1939, en un taxi! O eso es lo que nos ha contado. jaja!

fuimos andando en bici, Geordi y yo. A marea alta el río se desborda por las calles

Fantasies from the top deck

One of the reasons I always enjoyed the ride home to battersea or clapham on the 137. Isn't he a beauty?





Hyde Park Corner




(erected to commemorate the glorious heroes of the machine gun corps who fell in the great war 1914-1919)

Sardinian Buggers


Beautiful island, I think the nicest beaches and water I've seen around the Med.. mmm, maybe I need to see more, yes yes, I do. Ok, I will, alright, stop, you've made your point, I will do some more investigation and report back, I thank you.


Can you guess why I liked this one?? huh?? huh??

Open your golden gates baby


Mmm, yes, they were right, I loved San Fran, shame I didn't have more time, I was tootin' me horn and dingin' me bell all day long on the trollies, woohoo! After this pic I got a haircut in the Castro from some lovely mexicans who chat and give you shandy booze and told me about the local goin' ons. Later a clam chowder in a loaf, I don't eat carbs of course so I licked the bowl, no swallowing.

Mmm Dolly


I sure did love Dolly and I sure was surprised how she filled the Stockholm stadium, it was packed with dollettes, yes, that's what we calls them, I was more of a voyeur in that respect.

Moonstone Beach, San Simeon, CA










After an afternoon driving up from LA, and thinking about a beach and some peace, and some pieces of fishy and wine, I decided to stop at my name sake's (almost) seaside town and unexpectedly got just what I wanted - which was nice :)

LALA Land


Just a quickie.. coz it's the famous sign in the distance and kinda fits coz although I am enjoying it alot, there are too many dead looking people on the streets for the centre of this rich country.
I saw Tracy Ullman on the freeway in a rather sporty bmw - and I've had me heart broken in 17 places all over the city ever since, Tracy fan's, you know what I mean :)

Rarotongan arvos


I think I'm goin' throught a minialist phase, so only a few photos here and there. Was lovely, poppin abart on me bike; next time I'm going to check out the cargo boat option - they route round all the islands in a month.. Mmm..
