Trade you a Governor’s Bay pic from this year. The old wharf was decommissioned in 1938. Several poles still there for the birds to sit on and mussels to cling to.

Devonport village offers a salutary lesson about letting your fig tree get too big. This one comes with a plaque attesting it’s considerably older than any human alive on the planet today.

Almost at Wellington airport. If you have a spare couple of hours it’s an entrancing walk from Thorndon. Proceeds saved on the bus fare will go towards chocolate.

It’s a stormy day in Te Wanganui a Tara. Flagpoles are straining, people are getting blown over and flights are being cancelled and diverted. I just saw the wrapping on Turnbull House rip away and the hole’s already getting bigger. But the ferries are still sailing!

I’ve joined a new trapping group working on the Port Hills. Maybe I’ll be able to stop the weasel who crossed my path a few weeks ago.

I’ve learned the meaning of the place name, Rongotai. Apparently it means the sound you can hear when motorbikes and mopeds are prohibited.

Street utility box art. Sydenham, Ōtautahi. I think normally I’d hate it, but because it’s on a busy, grimy street, I don’t.

Last time I lived in Wellington the railway station had a supermarket. There was a disagreement about rent and then no more supermarket. Here’s the replacement.

I was at the supermarket today and got one of those backwards time travel bolts. When I was young, there was a year where I lived with others in a condemned house in Ōtautahi on a tiny income. A Boston bun would feed skinny me for two days.
