Day 15 - Tauranga

I woke up this morning, Lucille was not in sight, probably down to the torrential rain shower blocking my vision. Yep, you heard me right, I can stop gloating for the meantime. The rain has come and it has hardly eased all day.

This is of course not your typical Shetland sideyways rain. This stuff comes straight down, only altering its path when it hits the ground and makes an effort to go back up the way again.

Aidans 'walking bus' was duly cancelled due to the weather today so I dropped him off this morning. Just realised it is the class photos tomorrow so I am going to have to go up early to pay for them.

The main task today has been job-hunting and car-hunting. No joy on the job front as yet but we may have a car lined up. We have told the wife that we are going to mull it over and get back to her.

Tania spotted what appears to be a Wasp nest up above the front door. That could explain where the wasp came from that was in the house on our first day or two of being here. As Tania is allergic to the little buggers, I guess it will be down to me to try and get rid of it. Having never been stung by a bee or a wasp then I don't know if I might die or not. My acute allergy to anything else that moves would suggest that I probably am. If there are no updates to the blog for a while then you can surmise that I am indeed allergic to stripy-yellow-stingy things.

Then again, they may have drowned by the time morning comes! Cheers.
