I hope you had no brushes with bulls or peacock-induced power failures while you were acting as solo parent to your menagerie of beasts, birds, and children.We had a very pleasant Christmas with lots of friends coming and going for meals and snacks. Mrs Norris and her cats - Taurus and Senany, settled in happily over Christmas and New Year, as we managed to keep Muffin and the cats away from each other. We had a lovely day's outing to Akaroa in perfect weather and had lots of swims. Sally was with us till January, when she left to go camping on the Coromandel Peninsula. Since then we've been kept busy in the garden which has needed constant watering. We've had...
