The weekend in Wellington with lots of things

 Hi,

The weekend was fun and full of random events.  Started with boot camp Saturday under the eaves of TSB as it was raining a bit.  Great fun.  Then off to Mojo to meet Sally and Andrew for the brekkie deal.

How many chilli flakes is too many?

2 for 1 brekkie @ Mojo on Saturday

Candid iced latte

Mike and I dropped into Mitre10 Mega to try and get some black Expol for the Epuni unit to insulate the floors.  But they had none - place was heaving.  But all social distanced with masks.  

Back to the unit to finish the plastic and start taping and sticking it down.

The crypt is shrouded in black

Mike did a wonderful job.  At around 3pm Sally and Andrew dropped by with scones (two different ones as a taste test) and lunch.  Wraps with avocado, hummus and tomatoes.  Mmmm.

Off home not too long after that.  

Nice sleep.  Clocks went forward.  We had a relaxing morning until I tickled Mike at the dining table and his spasm of ticklishness meant he slammed my head into the table.  I have a wee bruise on my forehead now.  Then I dropped Mike in town and headed to Totara Park for the first AFL game of the season.

What fun that was.  6 a side is hard work though.  So much running.  No subs.  Woot!  The ground at Totara park was a bit boggy.  I took an unexpected mark right by the goal.  But my surprise gave time for a defender and then I missed a sitter.  I need to start practising more.  Training is back to Tuesdays.  Here we go - bring it on.

Back to Gorilla Burger in Miramar to meet Mike who had run there via Bunnings and Janine who had run there from Karori.  At Bunnings, Mike had got Janine a drill for her house warming present.  Good work!

We went from there to the Mini coffee bar and enjoyed an iced latte in the sun.  Dropped Janine off at her old house and then headed to Island Bay to meet Elly.

Getting an iced latte @ Mini 

Elly had to walk around in her uniform to have a presence at the marine reserve there.  So we wandered along with her, chatting away.


Island Bay tour of duty

Mini iced latte - so, so good

Then to a pub called  Brew'd in the main street of Island Bay for a late lunch with Elly.  Mike and I headed home after that and basically fell into bed not too much later.

Nice sleep.  Rainy weather for Monday.  Up for the 6.16 bus and dead lifts with Quentin.  Then into work for me.

Hope your day is a good one.  Mike will meet me at the supermarket after work as we need some groceries.

Take care.  Love,
Angela
