Back by popular demand! So much to do for the somewhat aged Sadie Boy (ESE). What a busy life ESE and the Sammo have had since we got back from Europa on 5th October last year. New Plymouth, Sydney, Brisbane and Invercargill (not to mention Ohakune, the snow country in the central mountains) visiting offspring and younger but special old friends. Gardening, bottling, preserving, distilling, lawn bowling, being trained by the two 'bichon boys' and oh! that's right teaching by Sammo (fulltime).
Still retirement is doing what one wants to do and when. All good stuff. The only sad feature has been the death of Picasso the big, fat, hungry aged cat (in his 19th year) and in his sleep after his normal evening snack to prevent night time starvation. He now rests at Greystone working up an appetite.
It is now spring and Greytown and the Wairarapa looks dramatic. Some of our blossom is shown below.

Your place looks really lovely and the Bichon Boys looks happy on their bean bag.
