Meanwhile in Chesterfield. Cooling off on a hot day when it's just too far to the pond.

June 25
Okay, so it may be a day late. School holidays again and with Martin still in England, Amy and Donna are spending a few days in the capital. Looks like a (not so) healthy breakfast.
Lunch stop with John Hart, and Ashover Rock, or The Fabrick

Finally a photo where she's smiling for the camera. Official school photo so she had to! The only one, so some photos of us in the school holidays.

We have a teenager in the family! Here she is having a birthday takeaway with friend Eva, and not wanting her photos taken. Likewise below, cutting her cake!
And our regular visitor John from Bolsover, at Hygge cafe in Clifton, about 20km from here.

Amy seems to have been conspicuously absent from in front of the camera this month, so by way of a change, here are two of our three lots of UK visitors this month. Old hash friends from Brighton, or rather Shoreham by Sea, Gaby and John; below, Gail and Nick from Milton Keynes.
Out and about on our travels. At Nirvana Farm Stay near the Mohaka River, just off the Napier Taupo road.

Wakaipo Bay, Lake Taupo.
