It's the law!





I usually walk past this Auto Electrical business most mornings and this mural is on this side of the building next door which faces their carpark. I've wondered what it has to do with them and then last week I worked out it's there because the other side of the building is owned by a lawyer's office. I think I was a bit slow off the mark there.

This mural was painted by an artist called Shasa Bolton who lives in Tasmania, Australia but is from Kerikeri, where we are - he is a design engineer. 

Hope your weekend has been good. Stay safe, kia kaha.

Linking up with Monday Murals.

I love this with the geometric black and white behind the gavel. It's unusual and brilliant.

I like the way the mural gives depth to the upper wall (it is a flat wall to begin with?)

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 ...
