Monday 22nd October – Labour holiday

J went off golfing with three of his friends today. He got new (man-size) golf clubs for his birthday and is keen to try them out.

R and I went on a garden tour of the locality. Villages in Hawkes Bay have weekends with open gardens for charity at this time of year and it was the turn of Puketapu, 2 miles away from our home. Some of the gardens were spectacular and covered more space than our paddock. The owners must spend all their time gardening! The gardens were doubly surprising because Puketapu was right in the centre of the rain bomb which hit in mid-July, mentioned below. The gardeners had been very busy in the last 3 months!

I did not achieve as much as I wanted this weekend but it was more relaxing having the extra day!.

We still have lots of boxes to empty.

R has still to find her salt and pepper set
