Our Back Yard











Here are a few snaps of our back yard. We have quite a variety of animals here. Some belong to the landlord, and some are just here to live for a while. There is also 3 Rabbits, a dog and another cat!

Tem Morrison


While watching some V8 Ute racing with some friends of ours at Pukekohe, we got invited to the prize giving afterwards. Tem morrison is one of the Drivers in the series and we got to meet him and see him give a great performance singing with the band.

The Cactus


Here is an updated photo of the Cactus. It is doing really well.

Ducks in the Pool







A couple of weeks ago after the landlord spent a good few hours cleaning the pool, we ended up with Mother Duck in the pool with her ducklings. Richard and I did our best to get the ducklings out - they didn't realise when they hopped in that they were too small to make the leap back out again. In the process the sparkling clean pool ended up with Duck droppings through it!! Not a good look...

Dexter the Fluffy Genga Cat











We took a trip to the SPCA about 3 weeks ago to look at the cats. Eventually after narrowing it down to about 4 we decided to bring home Dexter.
He is settling in well; he spends his days outside exploring when we are at work and sleeps most of the weekend when we are home. He makes a nuisance of himself at night trying to sleep on our pillows...

The Pool!




The bonus here is that we get full use of the swimming pool - when the weather warms up that is!




New Home
















OK, here we go. Richard and I are in our new place and have settled well. We managed to get pretty much everything we needed before we moved in which was a bonus. Here are some photos of our new home. It's small but suits us for the moment.
