Happy New Year. So nice to hear from some of you over the xmas period..best to wishes to those that I haven't caught up with and I hope to soon.

We spent xmas in a bach in the Coromandel and New year in Wellington as planned. we have had glorious weather since October really and xmas was no exception it was even sunny in Wellington (known as the windy city!)

Some piccies for you of our fun away..

Ooh - just one of my xmas work lunch - we went to a lovely tapas restaurant.

I have lots more to write, but have been distracted by getting ready for Steve's parents (Maggie and Jim) and planning our next trip away to the South Island - Queenstown. We fly Sunday. Not before we go and watch The Police in concert in Auckland sat eve. So, I will update blog on our return to Auckland, I will after all, be out of work officially so should have plenty of time on my hands if not being a tour guide for Maggie and Jim.
Again - happy new year to everyone / anyone that still checks in on us!
