Sunny Spring window reflections at Bayfair

So I had one of those moments yesterday at work when I popped out at lunchtime to one of the local shopping malls to buy a few things. You see a few months back I purchased online what the auction stated was a brand new pair of unworn shoes, said shoes turned up and looked as they were touted to be and when I put them on at home they were comfortable and looked very good. By the time I got to work the lining had begun to unpeel from the inside and by morning tea when I returned to my desk from a short walk I noticed the heels had come off - so much for a brand new pair of unworn shoes.

After nipping out to buy a new pair I was walking back to my car and noticed this reflection in some of the mirror windows next to the parking lot and thought it it was pretty cool that not only was it a lovely sunny Spring day but that a guy on a cart was visible driving past a load of trolleys that were being lined up to be pushed back near the entrance.

Hope your week has gone well, for more weekend reflections click here :-)

That IS a good reflection - it lifts the building, doesn't it? And I agree - almost like a mural.

Grace Brothers

We have 2 new chickens, both black ladies. If any of you are familiar with British comedy tv shows you will recognize the names we have given them. This one is named Miss Brahms. And this one is named Mrs Slocombe. At the moment we have them in a temporary shelter next to the Special Patrol Group that we've had for the last 9 months just so they can get to know each other before we intigrate the black ones in with the brown ones. These ones give us a white coloured egg whereas the brown shavers give us brown coloured eggs. Linking up with Tuesday Treasures , Happy Tuesdays and Wordless Wednesday .

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money). My research found that: "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...
