New kiwi driver!

There is a new kiwi driver on the roads here! Dan has just started going out and about and I've been nominated the 'instructor'!!

We started off in a carpark going round and round and have now progressed to the wide open roads. I haven't been brave enough to take him into town yet!!!

Brrrrrrr! Time for Winter fires!!

Well, it's getting colder. The temp has dipped below 10C! We've been busy stacking some fire wood (this is two rows deep!) ready for those toastie evenings!

Oh and I nearly set the house on fire! Got up one morning cleaned the ashes out from the previous nights fire. Then took the dogs for a 1 hour walk. Came back via the back garden and smelt burning...!

Now I have a shiny metal bucket for the ashes to cool in!! Before I get rid of them!
