Roses everywhere

 

 

 

 

These are some of the roses that are blooming at my work at the moment. The scent is amazing and although I already have 3 in pots in my outdoor deck I keep seeing more that I want.

Roses were my maternal grandmother's fav flowers. She won many prizes showing her best blooms over the years. I love the range of flowers and the perfume, but don't share her love of fussing over them, so i have only ever been successful with 'unfussy' roses - ramblers mostly. Those ones are absolutely beautiful so not surprising you see more you like. I'd be permanently in debt if i worked in a garden centre/plant nursery.

These roses are gorgeous! I never though about roses until we moved into a garden that was already established with lots of them. Now I just have to wait and see what colors bloom.

I am glad you joined us at 'My Corner of the World' this week!!

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 ...
