Long weekend

Yahoo, we have a long weekend...it's also our wedding anniversary (16 years) and we had a small celebration dinner last night. The Stud is really a good cook, lcuky for me, all I have to do is keep the drinks topped up and the conversation flowing! The sad thing is it is hard to get a topic of conversation without reference to shakes and quakes and things that go "bump' in the night!

This morning we were treated to a thumping 5.5 quake...nothing more broken at our place except maybe a few shattered nerves. I've been on edge all day however there is a bottle of Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc in the fridge which I can hear calling my name so am looking forward to chill'axin' later. I still hate drinking from plastic champagne flutes but needs must!

My new temporary office is about 8kms out of the city, and these guys are now my neighbours....took this on the way to work one morning last week. The cattle were really nosey and came over to see what I was doing and then promptly went back to eating. I guess I wasn't interesting enough!
