Loved seeing Te Komititanga full of people celebrating the lighting of Te Manaaki, Auckland’s Giant Christmas Tree.
Hard to believe a few years ago this civic space was a four lane road. It’s much better now and it is used by tens of thousands more people each day.

Googling bazball while watching the first ashes test. Beyond ‘win at all costs’ I quite like these attributes
A less reflective environment
No negative chat
A win-at-all-costs mentality
No fear of failure
Praise – even for the little things
Simplicity of message
Embracing mental freedom and fun

I have over many many many years thought about how incredible Kirsten as Claudia was. “Which one of you did it? Which one of you made me as I am”
Also, Tom cruise was absolutely phenomenal.

Sitting in our fave ale house in melbs, and the man on a guitar cracks out Split Enz. LOVE IT.
Funny how much little tiny reminders of home can really brighten your day.
Was similar when we lived in London, from finding flat whites, to meeting fellow kiwi, to intro-ing L&P to people 🥝+❤️
