Christine - Not much evidence of Halloween stuff out here, usual masks etc on sale but no 'do's' advertised - we will wait and see! I managed to connect my msn to Chris's (my son's) net passport - he thought he was helping by taking all my contacts off - little realising that the account was 'international' and that all the contacts would disappear from my home account too! I was not best pleased!

Morning Gwynne and everyone. The sheep thought we had forgotten them,what a racket! It was great to wake up and be able to see where we are going . Looks like another warm day over here,will have to make the most of it as rain due next week. Hope everyone is well Jill xx:)

*music plays* Summer Holiday Glad you are having fun, Mags. It sounds wonderful. Gwynne

Wow Mags, they like their Latte's then! :)) where are you then, in a Hotel now or at your Sons? :)

Tony and Guy - more like Butcher and Hackett! LOL We stopped on the way back this morning - somewhere on the Kauri Coast - asked for latte - was asked if I wanted glass or bowl - opted for bowl and it came in something that must have held half a gallon! LOL Great fun so far - only another 4 weeks to go!

We must take a new photo Mags to replace that old one on her table, just hope she is not an imposter! :))

Crisping up the bacon, and pouring more coffee, wonder if chef Diane is ok this morning, haven't seen her :)

Mmmmmmmmm. Lovely, Mags. *wonders if Toni and Guy have finally flipped* Gwynne

Mags, I hope that coffee tastes as good as ours here in the Cafe! :)) how did he do that then, (probably a silly question!) :))

Seaweed ?? - That's my new hair do!!

Welcome Ian, Sorry about the seaweed around Mags. Gwynne

Morning Ian, plenty of black coffee available here!, no butty required? :)

OK so far - long journey to the Cape but took in The Bay of Islands - spectactular! Son has just bought me coffee for real - trying to make up for having wiped my msn contact list I think! LOL

Lovely and mild here this morning Mags!, are you ready for halloween there? :)

Good afternoon all, No extra hour in bed here - in fact if we had daylight saving it would be an hour less. Just a black coffee or me thanks and no sugar please. Ian

*music plays* Food Glorious Food* Morning, Chris, Gwynne

*pours another coffee for Mags* Sounds like you're having fun. Gwynne

Good Morning Gwynne,Jean Mags and all Folks :) thought the cat would be up early, but he decided to lie in! :)) plenty of drinks going, and more choc. digestives :) butties on the go... how's the holiday going then Mags? :)

Was good when we arrived - still tee shirt weather but wet tee shirt weather! Raining on and off. Been up to Cape Reinga (NZ equivalent of John O'Groats) and it was fine when we got there - rain on and off all the way back - must have brought the English stuff with us!

*dances with delight to see mags* Interesting get up, Mags. How's the weather? Gwynne
