Skeletons

So I was at The Warehouse last week and saw a few displays up showing Halloween costumes and decorations.

Halloween really isn't that popular here but last year we had a few people knock at the front door trick or treating.

I'm wondering if this year it's more popular or the in the South Island. We will see...

In other news we have bought the house we put an offer on, move in date is 30th October. So exciting!

Halloween has grown in popularity here. It's quite huge in some suburbs of Sydney. And this house. Hehehe. Congratulations on the house. That is very exciting!

Congratulations to the new homeowners! Fun (and busy) times ahead. Better stock up on the Halloween candy just in case you have visitors. But get the kind you like to eat yourself just in case the trick or treaters don't show up..))))

Halloween is a bit too creepy for my taste. It seems the decorations and outfits have veered toward the macabre. These stop short of that, thankfully.

Halloween is a great holiday here. I much prefer to Christmas. The weather is still pretty good, you don't have to buy people gifts, and nobody feels sorry for you if you can't make it home for Halloween.

Would like to have one of those sceletons in my man-cave (i.e. home).

Good luck with the new house and moving. New beginings are always nice.

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 ...

Family

  Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years.  This week we have: Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date. I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink. We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out. And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally?  I actually th...

Hail

  Spring is throwing out some strange weather right now. We don't get snow where we live but it is visible on some of the mountains around us over Winter. Last week around 4.30am we had a very loud thunderstorm with hail. It wasn't until an hour or so later my daughter said this is what she saw out on our deck.  Clumps of hail all over the deck and on her hand. Apparently various other suburbs around town got it too.
