Mute swan (Cygnus olor) at Henley Lake in Masterton - nobody has written a poem about this guy. Interesting aside - I read "Stop all the Clocks" at my father's funeral many years ago, it is still one of my favourites. Knowledge of swans aside, Auden was a genius. Bird #78 in 2022."

We have been to Mamas Sizzlers for dinner a couple of times and enjoyed the food and nice people who run the place.

Today we went to brunch. We had an awesome brunch, really tasty, good range including vegetarian and vegan. The coffees good, the service is great, the food the best brunch in Jville we think.

Give them a try people, we dont have many eating places in Johnsonville and this one is worth trying. Its not the old Tulsi that was in here, its new owners, different menu, but includes a couple of Indian dishes that I'm told are excellent. It has joined Wilsons and Thai Tara as our go to places here.

They have menu etc at

mamassizzler.co.nz...

or on facebook at

www.facebook.com...

The picture is their Turkish eggs, super tasty poached eggs on toast with roast cashews, and a spicy dukkha yoghurt.

Prices are reasonable and good value for money

Retails for $599

Manufactured in 2019 and purchased late that year. With lockdowns and travel restrictions, this carseat has barely been used. Originally purchased for Nana to use in Palmerston North when our son would visit (which he managed to do twice).

Our son says it is comfortable and perfect for sleeping in too.

The child restraints are installed in the rear of the car and can only be used forward-facing. They are installed in the car using the car seatbelt and the top tether strap attached to the car’s child restraint anchor ?tting. This Car Seat is designed to be used by children from approxi­mately 6 months of age up to approximately 8 years of age.

This Child restraint has also been designed with ‘TWIST & LIFT” which features deep side wings that shield and contain your child’s head in a side impact crash. The TWIST & LIFT system is designed to be adjusted as your child grows which automatically repositions the harness at the same time.

Click on the link below for safety instructions and more about the carseat.

Pick up is in Khandallah. I can deliver within Wellington and Lower Hutt (please ask in the message section first for additional delivery cost and where you are).

Price: $279
