The weekend with Wellington things

Hi,

What a weekend - flurries of activity followed by bouts of inactivity.  Kinda perfect really.  Just how I like it.

Saturday saw me and Mike up early for the group PT session at Frank Kitts Park.  We bussed in and that worked out well.

The session was diabolical!  OMG.  We started with stair climbers and crazy quad exercises and by the time Mike and I were finished the stations, we were had it!

We ended up in the mini Pride Parade from Civic Square to Waitangi Park, right at the back, walking with the trans part of the parade.  This was to start "Out in the Park" for the day.  Loads of stalls for the community and singing and dancing etc on a stage.

Mike and I detoured to Joe's Garage for a coffee fix and brekkie.  Yum.  Back to Out in the Park to check out the things happening.

Out in the Park - taiko drums!

Okay - my pics are so out of order.  Hahahah.

We went home and I showered and headed out to John's house in Churton Park for lunch with my colleagues.  Lovely time - great food.  It was good to chat to people and meet John's family.  His wee son was quite the highlight (he's 22 months old) - feeding Andrew S all the food.  And even some wine!

I dropped Andrew and Larissa back at their house and they invited me in for tea.  I felt so looked after by them - it was such a nice break.  Their house is lovely and I think if you ever have the privilege to be a guest of theirs, you would be very lucky indeed. Well looked after.

  Out to pick up Toby and Tessa and then meet Sally and Mike in town.  They were at Panhead, but we had reservations at Mama Browns at 1815.  Ate there - it was okay.

Sally walked back to the station and we dropped Tessa off and headed home.

Up on Sunday to assess the cycling options - but heavy rain made me cancel.  :-(  Boo!!!!

We laid out the Good Nature Chirp trap monitoring tags.  Ooohhh.  Wednesday we will take a look and determine the best place to lay the trap.

We went out to get messages done - cat stuff (kitty litter etc), petrol, brunch, groceries - then home to sort out a few things.

Cooked tea and fell into bed.  Toby got home late and was furious with the buses.  He waited close to 2 hours for his bus home.

And today he has a migraine.

Let's see what the week has in store for us, eh?  Last week of February 2020.  My birthday month is coming to a close.

Enjoy your week.

Love,
Angela
