round at friends this afternoon for coffee, cake and his help with our tax returns - handy having a tax lawyer friend. Because of him, we get a decent tax refund every year that we wouldn't have got otherwise. It's not what you know, it's who you know - actually, that's crap because if we understood tax, we wouldn't need to know tax lawyers!

This is taken from the deck on his house looking across Evans Bay - in case you hadn't guessed, Wellington airport is just to the left! And for those of you who know Wellington, yes the blame was wobbling somewhat in the sky!
