(I'm not sure )

If you swap deck issues for drainage issues, that sounds like my house!

Although not sure if reprint is a typo?

oops - yep repaint. Although word through someone I know if whole street will help as current colour so offensive. $25K total to sort out all issues inc repaint. Then we would have kitchen etc. to sort inside and deck to sort.

So have you decided whether to go for a pre-auction offer lollystix.

Sorry frick, had connection issues

vvviola really sorry to hear that.
Also, completely understand how you feel about the visitors. My gran used to say "Lovely to see them arrive, lovely to see them go!" about sums it up. And, YY to the extra expense. We just couldn't do it.

Exciting lolly. I think I would make an offer, but I'm a bit impulsive and not very good at playing the long game!

i say go for it lolly, i mean, the worst thing that can happen is that you dont get it, right?

You - impulsive AB - never!

How very dare you, lolly? What has made you form that opinion!

Have just mentioned to vviola that I will be in Auckland on Fri pm, whilst dh goes into the office at the harbour (on the 13th floor). If anyone is free and would like to meet me for a flat white or hard liquor that would be nice
(understand 'tis vey short notice)

Oh you'll have to tell me, justa! Have no idea!
I will not be childfree, so was only kidding about hard lquor
I will have the littlest, Mum "couldn't cope" with all three.
Would be lovely to see you.

Oohhh..checking blackberry...I could do a coffee - have meeting 3pm and others after but could do before?

Yay,lolly! I will be on foot and have been to Aukland twice! So will have no idea of anwhere! And, internet connection keeps dropping off here, couldn't get basck on last night. Have ipad mini but can't work out how to get to last reply on the thread! Anyone know?!! lolly I will fb you my moby.
justa you have it already.

If you want somewhere outdoors the international buskers festival starts today at the Wynyard Quarter, nice on a sunny day, www.silopark.co.nz/Home/Whats-on.aspx?ID=112&Title=Auckland%20International%20Buskers%20Festival&SortBy=Future&category=WynyardQuarter&DontShow=Hide
And Silo Park next to it has a good little playground for kids

AB which building is DH in?

Bloody internet, sorry!Am rushing to get ds1 to kindy bear with me.

Dh building is in fort street, he doesn't know the name
justa will fb you shortly.

I'm up for anything really, am easy. A coffe shop or buskers thing don't mind, could I walk to it?

Am so jealous - hope you all had a lovely time. My Dad had gone off to use his Xmas present (a trip on the America's cup boat), so Mum & I did a bit of a blitz on the house. Necessary but not exactly fun.

How was Waiheke, AB?

Vvvoila- I mean't to say earlier. I'm sorry for your family's loss.

The fabled," Massive Fuck Up, AB" you mean?!Was very sorry to miss you justa and lolly . 'twas my fault, very short notice and disorganisation as per usual! Apologies.
And thank you vvviola for all you info re Waiheke..,vey kind. And, yes please to the adoption offer!
Have caused a shit storm on the waiheke community fb page, asking for pro's& con's.All kinds of allegations stirred up!oops.

Anyway, am a bit tipsy so love you alllllll!

Ps where is my buddy, dr meerkate? She is suspiciously quiet! Probably running about wearing monkey feet or something.

Hey all.

Sorry about your family's loss vvv

High tea sounds lovely justa Glad you enjoyed it.

We already have people contacting is saying "oh, we'll be out there in xyz to see you all" and I'm thinking "yeah, bet you will be now we live in NZ, never bothered when we lived in UK"

Loving not having a tv. I recommend it. Evenings have been so lovely and anything we do want to watch we use the comp and use catch up tv.

Anyone been to Long Bay? We've been there a lot recently. Great park, lots to discover, loads of grassy picnic areas and the beach. Was there today and thinking maybe we could do a meet up there. Pack a picnic and what have you?

Been busy on Blipfoto the last few days. Think I'm becoming a bit addicted.
