Two parcels arrived in quick succession, full of an interesting assortment of shells, leaves, postcards, sundry papers, etc! Beautiful skirts.From India, presumably? Anton and Emma are staying at the moment. Emma’s sister lives in Wellington, and her mum and dad, having spent six months touring NZ in a car earlier this year, have now gone back, bought a motor home, and are doing the same again! They’re considering buying a house.

Daisy is back on the road. I’ve added Jul onto the insurance; I must sort out some lessons, soon.
