Jing bells jingle bells Adriaan all the way The bat mobile lost its wheel On the Te Puke highway! It’s Santa Claus!  

Checking out the boardwalk at Papamoa with Jo, we say, Mynahs, Sparrows, Swallows and Pukekos Getting the office job done!!  

Making a floral arrangement out of fabric and a bit of paper mache glue.  

Gotta clean the van! I ride in it, (I probably add to the dirty haha.) Gotta kill the germs on my hands too, because my hands go everywhere!  

Sjoe, hierdie week het ek ontspan en Kersversierings gemaak.  

 Back at drama again, one has to check in regularly to make sure things are running smoothly.

Had a great time at drama watching the new show unfold, I was enthralled the whole time.  

How to win someone’s heart ❤️ ❤️ ❤️  Our group made a monsters brain for Fabric Fusion, it’s scarrrrryyyy!!  

It’s Fabric Fusion “Yeah I can do this.”  

 Here I am, centre stage at our “Thriller” spectacular. I was a werewolf I think, either way I was freaking scary. “Muahahahah”  

All roads lead to Rome, correction, to the chip shop, where I help get healthy chips to munch on and for everyone else of course.  

Sitting back, having a smoko break and a cuppa after a full days work.  

Here we are, on set for our show ….. Heading on the Highway. Man I was looking for adventure, had my cowboy hat and my dances moves and a large coffee.  

This is Kawakawa art, the green stuff is actual Kawakawa juice. I am the ring master!haha just putting a hat on at the drama production.  

Been a lot of spring cleaning going on, the centre looks really bare, but it’s good. Looks nice and clean.  

We got to go to Baypark to watch some basketball, as Tauranga is hosting the AIMS games. We watched a  game between a school from Glen Eden and Albany, two schools I had never heard of. We also got a coffee from the cafe.  

What’s going on here? Jo is trying to tempt me with bubbles, but I know better, hahah no bubbles on me.  

We went to the supermarket to buy aluminium paper, I was thinking purex would be better, but you know, toilet paper doesn’t have the same artistic look.

OMG it’s coffee!! Mmm that smells soooo yum “Sigh, that was a great coffee.”  

This was my paper mache’ creation, it was pretty cool, really sloppy but fun And here I am tie dying, this was a sheet not an actual tie but you get the drift.  

This is my winged fire engine made from wool and fabric, imagine being able to fly to fires. Helping staff get the lunch orders correct, this is a crucial role and has to be done exactly!  

This is my happy face, which I have after I play music on my stereo or use the computer, lately I have been researching Peppa pig, I wish I could do the voices, they are very funny.

I went to the drama production of Alice in Wonderland. It was very confusing, I even saw someone dressed up as a rabbit, great music though, good times, really enjoyed myself. This is me contemplating the best move on Jenga. The trick is to get someone with steady hands to help cos when I do it, I smash it!!  

Happy Birthday to me, it’s my birthday!! Here we are on the nature trail, looking at all the cool trees and shrubs we have near the centre.  

 Being the nice man I am, I helped out the staff with screwing in the legs on a new heater. I’m in charge of knowing stuff, and boy do I know a lot.. Playing basketball with of the guys from Greerton Arohanui who came for a visit.  

I have discovered Peppa Pig on YouTube, although I hide it when a staff walks past, clearly I am researching other stuff. Drama, this week, in my producers chair.   

Did you know that there are at least five shoe shops at Bayfair, who would have thought that? With all sorts of shoes too … boots, gum boots, sneakers, loafers, slippers, jandals, sandals, sports shoes … so many. And this week was a sale. I now have to come up with a cunning plan in order to get new shoes. This is just but a start!
