Bobby's Fresh Fish Market


A while back just before I started working I was enjoying a walk along The Strand here in Tauranga, you know those days when you just have to get outside and do something? Well on my walk I spotted this large blue sign advertising Bobby's Fresh Fish Market, apparently here they make the best fish and chips or so I've heard. At other times I've driven past this spot it's been packed with people enjoying lunch, can't say I blame them, it's got lovely scenery :-)

Isn't that usually the way, the places that don't look like much on the outside have the best food. Let us know when you try them.

I enjoy fish and chips and always find they taste best when eater beside the sea. I'd like to try some from that shop!

Somehow fish and chips taste a whole lot better when you're so close to sea and you can smell the ocean.

A great place to halt and fill up the tummies.
I would love to sit and enjoy some fish n chips here! A favorite meal at a perfect location.
There's a place very like this near where we live in FloridA ... called Andys Fish Market... Small, water views, you can watch their boats bringing in the days catch. Eat lunch, buy fresh fish to take home to cook, either one ... Or both !

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 ...
