Spring Cleaning… um, I mean Autumn Cleaning
As I may or may not have mentioned, MrPloppy‘s parents are arriving next week from the UK for a month’s visit (they won’t actually be staying with us for the whole month, because they’re going to do a bit of touring around the country, but they’ll be using our place as a base). It’s the…
Adding to Mt. TBR
Bookcrossing is all about giving away books, right? Then how come over the last three days I’ve managed to give away seven books, but acquire twelve? On Saturday, we had a bookcrossing picnic in the botanic gardens. Quite a few people who’d said they’d be there weren’t (probably because the weather has been so iffy…
The hug box and other mysteries
I got a phone call tonight from sherlockfan, very excited about the parcel that she’d got this morning, so I can now reveal the secret of the hug box. Recently, while on holiday in France, sherlockfan had a fall which put her in hospital. Her holiday was cut short and she had to be medevacced…
Reporting in (and a couple of NoNos)
Well, we’re back from our trip down south, have covered an unfeasible number of kilometres in the last three days, successfully (finally) accomplished our mission of delivering the hug box to Otakuu, and generally had a great (but exhausting) time. I’ve got hundreds of photos (literally – I had to buy a new memory card…
I'm leaving on a jet plane
don’t know when… actually, I do – I’ll be back on Tuesday night. I’m off to Wellington for a few days, ostensibly for work, but as usual instead of flying up on Monday morning for a couple of days of exciting meetings I managed to change my flights so I get the weekend to enjoy…
NoNoNoNo Day 2
Remember what I was saying about saving pictures for a rainy day? Guess what – it was raining this morning. But it had cleared up a bit by the afternoon, so after work I walked home via the university’s wonderful Ilam Gardens, which feature one of the largest collections of rhododendrons in the southern hemisphere,…
That’s a lovely picture of him. I’m glad I got to see him one last time recently (and see him enjoying Thai food!).

I know you will miss your furry friend….
Such a lovely cat. I am sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss
(((((hugs)))))
So sad to hear you have lost your beautiful boy. I had to go thru the same process with two of mine, both at 14 as well, one to diabetes, one to cancer. I’m grateful that my Dexter, at 14, is the picture of health despite being a little porkchop. I’m sure you have many sweet memories of Ming and it is nice that the roses will remind you of him. Take care.
