A friend drew my attention to the view outside the window. No time to adjust the settings used to photograph small birds in the forest so I pointed the camera at the scene. The resulting colours were weird partly because of the the camera settings and probably also because of the bus's window glass. So here is Ruapehu in B&W taken from HW3. Please enlarge.

Had some new Windows delivered to me in this super sturdy crate. Size: 890x1840 (it's from the US so those rando dimensions probably mean something in badgers per square furlong).
Pickup from Paraparaumu.
SuperGold cardholders receive an additional 5% discount.
That discount is off our already low prices.
Pop instore for a chat, we'd love to help you out.
It's that spooky time of year and while there are some streets that welcome Halloween and set themselves up for trick or treating, there are other houses where you're more likely to get an earful than Halloween lollies. Do you think there's a place for Halloween in NZ?

I let one of my beds go to seed over the winter and now have buckets of seedlings. Ideally if anyone has extra tomato, cucumber (of any type) or capsicum/chili seedlings or plants a swap would be wonderful. Or if not just flick me a text and I'll give you my address to come over and help … View moreI let one of my beds go to seed over the winter and now have buckets of seedlings.

Every single day of September, come rain, shine or blustering gale, Russell set off from his home at Ryman Healthcare’s Greenlane village to walk to the top of the iconic mountain set in the heart of Cornwall Park.
The idea also coincided with Ryman Healthcare’s annual Walking for Wellness challenge, which this year aptly had an Everest theme.
