The Tuesday with hockey bingo

 Hi,

Well, I enjoyed getting an iced latte served to my desk - ta for that, Mike. And I also got away to Cuckoo to catch up with Nicole so we could talk about politics. Love being in a wee echo chamber with her.

My lunch spot

I nipped out for a short lunch break to eat my giant sandwich from home. It might have been short - but the views were magnificent.

I rode home at 3pm for my afternoon meetings. Then drove back into town to pick up Mike and Jill for Erin's bingo fundraising night at the National Hockey stadium.

Jill was a dark horse having competed internationally in bingo previously. She can't really remember one of the events. Suspect a bit of alcohol was involved. But she was streets ahead of me and Mike - this was our first bingo event.

Erin was good - she was the ball grabber. Someone read out the numbers. We ate food. All in all, I had a great time. We sat at a table with Erin's friend, Elspeth and her 3 sisters (Vicky, Helen and Kate). One of Erin's sisters got a line bingo. We had to shout hockey instead. But other than that our table did not get anything except a good time.

Erin even scored a lift home for Jill. So we did not have to drive to Paraparaumu and back. That was equal parts good and not good. I do like driving. And Transmission Gully is now 110 km/h.

But all good. We did get to bed earlier than we would have.  Winning.

Good sleep. Then online garage gym with Quentin.  Bench 40kg. 2 reps x 4 sets. Good. Then I tested some of the test pots of paint for near the front door.

I have no clue. I will keep testing. Let me know what you think.

Love,
