I'm glad I could bring a bit of summer to you. I organised a yorkie walk to the beach today and the weather was just lovely. I think I got a little sunburnt! I'm sitting down now with a cold beer, bare feet with sand still between my toes and two dead yorkies - dead in a good way - tired out!!
I think NZ is a fabulous place to live. Not that I'm biased

. Not nearly enough yorkies though.
All that scenery in the Lord of the Rings movies was ALL New Zealand - nothing was CGI. And a lot of it was filmed in and around Wellington - where I live.
But NZ is a long way away from everywhere! If y'all come to Welly I'd be pleased to show you the sights - and so you can meet D&D and get a yorkie fix on your holidays - I wonder if you'd hear an accent in their bark?
