………………………….…of Garlic


On the first Sunday of each September NZ remembers all ‘fathers’ and celebrates Father’s Day. Both our children live in different cities so it is always a lovely catchup time via Zoom / FaceBook.



Many thanks for the comments, stars and hearts for yesterday’s unusual geranium bloom.


The Paralympics closed with a colourful and happy ceremony this evening.

6 Gold, 3 Silver, 3 Bronze
