Another two days of sunshine. I have discovered that the Environment Bay of Plenty Website has a wonderful environmental monitoring network. Shows you the current wind/gusts as well as averages, historical data and rainfall information. Kind of strange when you look at the summary for the month and see how many days that there has been absolutely no rain. No wonder they charge for water here.
Yesterday Tania and I went for a stroll around the base track of the Mount. We realised that this is probably the first time that either of us have taken this route. Normally when on holiday we have trekked to the top. It is a nice leisurely walk around the base if you ignore the hundreds of other people that have the same idea.

After that we went and had a cup of coffee with Heather before heading back homewards.
Glad to find out that da auld man received his Fathers Day Card. Lloyds TSB had flagged the payment for it as fraudulent and suspended my card!
It arrived in one piece though, a masterpiece if I say so myself.
Aidan discovered another wasp nest today hiding in one of the bushes (the wasp nest, not him), so it looks like I have two of the damned things to remove. They both appear to be empty or at least very dormant.
Haircut time again for Aidan, much to his disgust. Almost to the bone again!
To round off this boring couple of days, I’ll leave you with the Evolution of a Photographer that I discovered the other day:-
