Happy New Year 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣1️⃣🥳🥳🥳🥳
Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas & New Year.
We had time in Southland with my partner's Mum where we enjoyed good food, wine, company, dog walks on the beautiful Estuary Boardwalk & relaxation.
We then drove up to Bannockburn where I caught up with my family for Christmas & my partner hung out with more of her family & shared some special time sprinkling her recently passed Stepdad's ashes.
We both enjoyed a night on my brother's vineyard (check it out here www.calvertvineyard.co.nz...) in 5 star airbnb accomodation - great company, wine & food. After a lovely lunch we drove back to Dunedin & enjoyed further relaxing, sunny days reading in the garden.
Our level of inquiry for new opportunities has increased markedly as the effects of the recent lockdown become more apparent impacting traditional businesses & jobs alike. We feel so grateful to be running our online business from home. In times of crisis / great change Personal Development & Success Mindset Coaching becomes more sought after. It has been our delight to be here offering something else to those that find themselves out of income.

After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

Calling All Puzzle Masters! Can You Solve This?
When John was six years old he hammered a nail into his favorite tree to mark his height.
Ten years later at age sixteen, John returned to see how much higher the nail was.
If the tree grew by five centimetres each year, how much higher would the nail be?
