Felt very happy to experience the slopy pitch that is Lords firsthand this sunny Friday. Even better seeing a stellar NZ side won the first one dayer in the series!   Obviously pleased to be strolling around St Johns Wood in post-victory jubilation.  

  Sunday the 26th was a beaming hot day, and with bank holiday monday it made for an excellent brown towel brewing! Cam, Morri and Scott above perilously navigated the steps to get their first stout brewed.

Relaxing start to the day, with flatmate Morri cooking us up some french toast to be enjoyed in our backyard. First experience hiring the ‘Barclay’s bikes’ was an easy one, and enabled Emma and I to do a quick Hyde park peruse before meeting up with the others. After exploring the inner city, we got […]

It was a chilly but very fun visit to Brighton, where we caught up with Liz and did some excellent second hand shopping and vegeterian eating. Pete showing off the find of the day from ‘Beyond Retro’. Next stop – world domination! Warmed up and well sated at ‘Cafe Rouge’, where we got into the […]

  We were  stoked to have Cam’s parents Jenni and Pete in town, and my good friend from Sweden – Emma Simonsson! Here we have Jenni and Cam demonstrating the difference between a pint and a half pint of beer.

It has been great times being involved with the Bandstand Beds in Clapham Common, where we are growing pumpkins and beans. I bike past the beds every day on the way to work and have helped get a watering rota going so that they grow grow grow! Is exciting to learn about growing and see […]

Went into Siena to check out the sights the next day, here at Piazza del Campo. A lot of old building action in the main square. Enjoying some vino back at the villa. Chats with the bride. Taking a stroll to the pool and exploring the glorious villa grounds. Kimily demonstrating how big a gallon […]

Glorious glorious times in Italy for the wonderful wedding of Josh and Jess! I met Jess at Arana hall in Dunedin, along with the lovely ladies above (although the majority are also from Invercargill). This was the merry post-ceremony room where we enjoyed some champers, and immense amounts of amazing tempura – with the finale […]

Alas, unable to take actual photos of the show, but we went to the ‘Book of Mormon’ musical with Scott and Sarah. Developed by the makers of South Park, it brings all of the in your face hilarity to life with great costumers, outrageous lyrics and general bombardement.
