The environment is on the mind for North Islanders after a recent study by the University of Auckland that found that Aucklanders are inhaling large amounts of airborne microplastics.

Some New Zealanders are trying to do their bit for climate change by biking more, planting trees, trying Meat-Free Mondays and only purchasing used clothing.

Mutiny on the bounty

Roger from Miramar

My roll, as a model maker and restorer of long-standing, has been to spend some time cleaning and repairing the model to bring it up to its former glory. And it now looks, ‘weather-worn, but well maintained,’ as it would have looked when it arrived in Tahiti.
The new owner of the model, Victor Young and myself, had previous lives in the Merchant and Royal navies, where we attained rank. So, we have found it quite ironic that in retirement we have both been reduced to scrubbing decks, and cleaning ship.

The model is now restored and resides temporarily in my small maritime museum, with other such similar exhibits, but is due to be collected soon, so if you were interested in the mutiny and how the mutineers ended their days on Pitcairn Island, please click the link to read the whole exciting story.

Merry Christmas, Roger Meecham.

The packaging has been ripped open and we could see that the contents seem to be baking decorating items.

Maybe the owner has put it there or it has been taken from someone’s door and ‘inspected’ before placed there.

I’ve taken 2 pics if that’s helpful.
