First Visitors

Yesterday, Waitangi Day, the first visitors to HeeBeeGeeBee's (which, in case you have forgotten, is the name of The Cottage) arrived: Marsha and Callum. It is very appropriate that it should be Marsha because for the last 12 or so years I have been privileged to be treated as part of her family by her Mum and Dad, Peter and Sandie in Callander and have stayed with them on countless occasions.

Despite the fact that they were tired because they had driven so far and done so much over the last few days and it was late evening before they actually arrived at The Cottage, we chatted into the wee small hours.

I'm off to represent the Club as Jayne's partner as part of the team playing Te Mata Croquet Club this morning and Marsha and Callum are catching up on some sleep before going off exploring. Although no strangers to New Zealand they have not been to Napier before.
