Sunday 12 March
Roo, Nicky and Caroline - sitting in a 'studio' in the Haast campsite. This is day one of our road trip up the West Coast with Caroline.
Summer Snow
It's been unseasonally cold the last few days.
Douglas went to Queenstown for the weekend, and went up the mountain to Cardrona to play in the snow.
He ended up (briefly) on national news:
Watch it here(Look for the clown in shorts at 1min 38 secs throwing snowballs.)
pealing.com upgraded
Hello folks
this is the upgraded version of pealing.com.
It should feel fairly familiar. There's still quite a lot to do, but it should be as functional as the previous version and I wanted to get it live so that it can be used again, having locked the old version from getting new posts.
Some things are simplified and some work nicer.
Images into fields (for the "More Pics" for instance) can be added by dragging and dropping into the field.
The whole management of media (images, video etc) will be different.
Merry Christmas

Believe and Albert's reunion with the Lion
Our church youth group host a what is called locally a "coffee house" each year. Think of it as a bit like a concert party. We all go to the community/village hall and take whatever form of entertainment we can do and a desert. We spend the evening sharing and eating the deserts, and entertaining each other. Entertainers age from 10 to 90 . Anybody who can manage to recite a monologue or play enough chords on a guitar to sing gets on the stage. We clap for everybody either because they done well or because they need encouragement.
Summertime in November 2016
I am 2yrs and 1 month old, in sax playing time. So here is a link to me playing a jazz version of Summertime from the opera Porgy and Bess by Gershwin.

Kanche lives at meatball.solution.unconfirmed
There's an interesting mapping project that I've recently discovered called What3Words
They have mapped the whole surface of the earth in 3m squares. Each square is described by a unique combination of three words.
Kanche's kennel is appropriately at:
