Box of chocolates and a surprise gift! I bet it’s not a vacuum cleaner though.  

We went and had a picnic lunch at Kulim Park in Tauranga, if you look real close I have a sparrow standing on my knee eating my popcorn! Me posing with Tauranga Harbour behind. Got to keep an eye on what is happening globally, here I at at my computer terminal being the best supervisor there is.  

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Can you see how I happy and cheerful I am. Christmas is near and I’m enjoying computer time.   

  Got to return the books in the right hole. Pentanque Pentanque the sound the balls make when I throw them.  

Here I am at the  Historic Village Detour Theatre, directing the new drama production. It’s an all over the place story so good luck following it, but I did my best.!  

Ball sports at the park! One day I will make the Spring Boks.   This is my view of one of the local parks, great view. Watch me roll!, down past New World, just rollin.  

Here I am at the historic village, I haven’t been to this building before, still not sure what it’s for.   Here we are with a Ho ho ho, outside everyone’s favourite shop. I’ve been a good boy I promise.  

Here I am at Abilities Unleashed , making these cool tree decorations, they looked like mushrooms and they turned out really nest Maintenance at Te Puke is always ongoing, here up I am screwing a chair which had wriggled loose.  

This is the westpac helicopter,  it it’s inside the hanger! Which makes it hard to see! One day when I visit it will be out. I enjoy going to drama, these guys are so funny, this is the first week of them preparing a new production. I can’t see anything but AAAAAArrrrrgggghhh!!!!  

   This is me presenting Kim from Drama a small gift of appreciation as part of our “Acts of kindness” group.  So cool to give it to Kim, she was delighted.  Here I am posing outside the church in the historic village. All I need now is a certain young lady ….

There’s two things a man needs in life 1. Coffee to get myself going … here I am at the supermarket. And 2.  Watching what I like on the computer. In this case BGT.  

 Haha, look at me, here the camera has caught me throwing the perfect shot to the basketball hoop. Sunny day, throwing some hoops. Can life be any better? Well yes it can. Here I’m at Abilities Unleashed, concentrating on the perfect bowl. I have to bowl it the right way, for the bias to kick in. But it’s only me that’s going to win, that’s how biased I am  

We had our end of the year concert and this year it’s theme was the Wild Wild West. We danced, we sang, we enjoyed ourselves and I was the sheriff! I was the man  

These are cookies for the builders next door, they are doing renovations and gave us some leftover bbq, in return we gave them their tray back with the brownies, Sewing for our production coming up. I love the sewing machine.  

This may be a clue for our up and coming end of the year concert, but I’m not saying anything. All I can say, is that it’s going to be big and awesome and that I have a crucial role.   When I’m not acting I like to paint, here is one of my latest masterpieces.   

Here I am buying the groceries for the week, making sure I get my special stuff too. I found a room of rocks that glow in the dark at the historic village.  

This reminds me that I have to take my Father’s Day gift to dad this weekend. Massive logging tree on the road passing us. Here I am posing at the bus stop while it’s sunny.  

Kyra and I outside of Bayfair,  Another successful trip in the bus. Here I am posing at the Historic Village. I have no words to be honest.  

 The Whipped Baker has the best deals in town. The best deals for me, a raspberry donut for me to eat.  About to play Battleship, a great game for inside sports.  

On the bus to Bayfair, very nice day, we had the bus to ourselves. Always something cool to look at at Bayfair, here I am dropping a subtle hint … These are my cds, I have a lot, I play them in my stereo, but more than that, I just like the feel of them in my hands.  

Here I am watching BGT on YouTube, I love it there is so much variety in singing and the music is really neat. In communication group we ended up google searching for our own house on google maps, although for some reason the photos were quite old. Here I am lining up the jack, playing indoor bowls.  

Here we are at Bayfair posing in front of a new Audi, that we discovered after out trip to Bayfair on the bus. Lots of new things to discover at the shopping centre. These two photos are when I was at the Te Puke library,  including checking out new books.
