Time for music




Monday Murals here again - on my daily walks I've seen this artwork on the inside windows of a local music shop. The Sound Lounge sells musical instruments, cds and also does repairs but I think at the moment they are closed due to Covid 19. Hope you're staying safe where you are.

Glad you are enjoying the job - getting paid for something you enjoy is great. Love the mural.
That's a really lovely mural and is a great advertisement for what is inside the store.

Sounds like you found the perfect job. Hope it turns into full time at some point.

Great mural. I hate I gave up the piano. And that I went into such a shop to get a guitar and they sold me one for an adult.
I am and was back then an adult,, but I´m small and couldn´t reach the... F? And gave up.
Weee. Good luck with your job. I´ll apply tomorrow and feel scared already.

Great mural for a music shop! I'm glad the job is going well. I've never had a talent for gardening but I have great admiration for those who do.

That is a great mural. My wife loves gardening. Years ago she worked with two other ladies who took care of gardens for a bunch of "oil widows" in the really nice part of town here. Oil widows are wives of rich oilmen who passed away. It was hard work.

I love gardening too. I've been working on my vegetable garden, and I'm hoping it will be a fruitful harvest this year. Congratulations on the new job!

Take care.

I love the mural. Repotting plants definitely seems to be a popular thing. The nursery at Shakespear park has a huge operation of volunteers repotting natives.

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 ...
