Out on the gravel road about 15 minutes out of Maungaturoto my daughter and I spotted this abandoned house on the side of a hill. When I see houses like this I wonder who lived in it, how old it is? From what we could see it was completely burned out inside.
21 days until we move up north. More stuff has been getting donated but I do wonder why people say they want something if they aren't going to pick it up. Our town has a local Facebook page where people give things away for free and people say they want it, then a name gets drawn and that person picks up the item. Sometimes people just don't pick the item up, which I think is rude and I had that happen to me on Wednesday. I do think if you give someone a date and time to meet them and you don't turn up then that's kind of like bad manners, the least you could do is to tell them you can't make it. Is it just me or is there just a lack of common courtesy these days?
Oh and we've had rain - yay! Not alot but just enough in bits and pieces and it has been so much cooler at night.
Linking up with Skywatch Friday.

Good to hear you are making progress...but it is annoying when people have no manners..it doesn't take a lot to let you know if they can't make a collection
Can never understand why some people are so rude, but I think it is tied up with selfishness - an attitude of "I will do what I want, and not have any consideration for anyone else".
I think what you are talking about where people don't show up is a global thing. It happens a lot here in the states. Drives my bonkers.

The abandoned places are sad, I sure it has a story to tell. Enjoy your day, wishing you a great weekend!
