…my good friend Dee was house sitting for friends in the hills overlooking the Otago Peninsula…
…I went up for dinner on Sunday evening…
…the weather took a turn for the f**king terrible…
….and we got snowed in Sunday Night…
…then frozen over on Monday night…
…finally freed ourselves on Tuesday afternoon…
…and for people who think I was making it up so I could play in the snow….
…japanese station wagon without chains in slushy refrozen snow equals no traction + swearing to the power of 10….
…many thanks to Kirsten, Scott & Alice for the comfy bed , food, rural animal-feeding distractions and towage past the insurmountable drive-way hump…
…Thank you Seedy & Callum from Left or Right for emergency signage co-ordination….
…fuck you, anonymous detractor (I’m picking Simon C, but he’ll deny it!)…
…normal transmission starts now.
Looks really strange because it’s summer over here. Well… it should be summer. But we didn’t have much of a winter, so maybe this is the new normal: autumn the whole year round…
…yep, gets those northern hemisphere types very time…I think we’re in for a rough one this year…could send some your way if you’re missing it…
