I don't have to pay extra for one of the existing, but I do for the other one. USA costs way more than Aussie.

Except when I have pinned something for accuracy, and he comes along and pulls those ones out. 😁 So helpful!!!

I've used both. Southern Cross covers Mountain Biking, so I use them for that when needed, but prefer Kiwi Holiday.
Kiwi Holiday was extremely supportive during a Med Evac Mongolia back to AoNZ. Refund within 3 months, no issues.
I have to add about $800 for existing medical conditions.

The cat adopted us one winter evening, howling under the rimu tree. The urchins fed it & he moved in.
The white cat is left over from an urchin that has left home, he likes to sleep (a lot!!). The cockatiel is another leftover from another urchin. He helps me by sorting the pins.

No worries, my niece changed her name to McGonagal as this happens a lot.😀

Isn't it great getting those bandages off!
My sunflowers that I planted have two little green leaves.
I hope some survive the slugs and snails (and cats sleeping in the garden).

The Santas set up Bluesky feed called "My Giftee" that was set up for Midwinter2025, which was a great feature. @orthanc.nz
I am not sure if it crosses the bridge to Mastadon.

These look so fun. Are these paper pieced? How is the triangle nose constructed/
