OK that's it! Chris is NEVER going near Tyler's hair again!! Look at this! I TOLD him not to trim the back while Tyler was huddled up against me as it wouldn't come out right but did he listen? Nooooo. And now we have a haircut which looks fine at the front and like a mental patient in a 1920's institute at the back.

At least it looks OK from the front. Here's the wee monkey-face modelling the latest in sheets :)

Just back from a flying visit to Oamaru to see Nan, Leona and the girls. Got a couple of lovely photos....
We stopped off at the North Otago Vintage Machinery show and Tyler enjoyed all the tractors and diggers and the steaming traction engine. Maybe we should have travelled at a more 'vinatge' speed on the trip home as we had an unscheduled stop to talk to Mr Policeman!

Gosh it's been a month since I last updated!

We now have another pet lamb (we had four little orphans but three didn't make it). This one seems to be thriving so that's good. Tyler likes feeding it and as he goes towards it with the bottle, he starts making sucking noises :)

I have been really sick with a virus which ruined my singing competitions weekend. I still managed a second and three thirds, but it was pretty disappointing not being able to sing properly. Now rehearsing for 'Last Night of the Proms' which should be lots of fun.

Anton has been away camping in the Catlins and is now back with us for a few days before heading up to Pop and Ali's farm for the rest of the week.

We have acquired two new cars - a little Mitsi Lancer to use as a runabout instead of my Holden and Chris traded in his 1970 CE Mercedes for a 1997 model, which we will use for longer trips.
