GREETINGS EVERYONE FROM TININN IN CULVERDEN

The weather here is just great-lovely sunny days and no wind.

The photo above is of our grandson Hayden(on the right) and his old
school mate Isaac Ross.
Isaac was over in Brisbane recently playing for the Highlanders and he
caught up with Hayden who is living in Surfers.

The thing that really impresses me is that when Isaac came back to New
Zealand he called in to Thomas House(the boarding hostel) Timaru Boys
High School to see Brooke (our other grandson) who is having his first
year there.For those of you who haven't attended boarding school it's a
big thing when you get visitors-,especially when they are 6ft 9ins and
played rugby for Canterbury in the N.P.C.This year he is playing for
the Highlanders.

I just thought it was so nice of him to call and see Brooke.

Apparently the rest of the boys were meant to be in Prep,but they were
so busy looking at Isaac there wasn't much work being done so the house
master asked Isaac to speak to the boys which he did.

After the Jesse Ryder episode: its nice to hear positive things about
young sports men.

Happy New Year Everyone

GREETINGS FROM CULVERDEN THE PLACE WITH THE BIG SKY.

Yes, I know this is a bit late-we are nearly into the 3rd month of the
year.

Where does the time go?

The photo is of our grandaughter toasting the New Year-we suggested
that she might like to swim in the glass seeing it was so big!

I'll finish with a message that I got from a friend on New Years Eve at
11.55pm

Before the sunsets on 2007
Before the memories fade
Before the networks get jammed and
Before I get drunk and lose my phone
I'm wishing you a fantastic 2008.

I really liked that message
