After a tense 27 hours following her progress on the online flight tracking sites, we are pleased to announce that Emma Goodwin has arrived in New Zealand, via Dubai and Sydney, in one whole piece!

Shake, rattle and roll
At 3.52 pm this afternoon we had a lovely long rumble in Wellington, courtesy of ‘The Ring of Fire’ that we sit upon. I was sat chilling in my room when the building began to rumble…and it went on for a good while! Normally you’d feel the quake, it registers, you begin to act uponContinueContinue reading “Shake, rattle and roll”
Diving with Island Divers
As I have just joined their club, this morning I went diving with Island Bay Divers. It was great fun but I let myself down a bit by having a bit of a panic attack under the water…ho hum… We dived at a site called ‘Kau Bay’, which is on the end of the MiramarContinueContinue reading “Diving with Island Divers”
Bike outing No.2
Last week I bought myself a new bicycle with Birthday money (thanks mum and dad), but it was a little intimidating to ride because it’s a lot bigger than my last bike and it’s got funny handlebars…well today I ventured out and I feel a little more confident. Which has meant that I had a lot moreContinueContinue reading “Bike outing No.2”

Having a good trawl through the internetContinueContinue reading “Birthday bicycle”
My Birthday
A friend asked me the other day, “Why do you get excited about birthdays when you’ve almost had 30 of them?” At the time I laughed but now I have had a think about it I wonder what it is about getting older that makes us less excited about our Birthdays? Is it that we’reContinueContinue reading “My Birthday”
Roller Skating
I thought that I should probably get out on my skates as much as possible now that they have been delivered to me and because I want to get my moneys worth. So I decided that i’d run my errands today on skates. I managed the stairs all by myself and got out of theContinueContinue reading “Roller Skating”
In quad we trust
My skates arrived! The lovely Kate delivered them to me at work and I unpacked them in the office with a massive smile on my face, quickly inserting the laces and putting them on. I continued to wear them for the rest of the day under my desk…I think my work colleagues think i’m aContinueContinue reading “In quad we trust”
Mt. Victoria Lookout
Today I ventured out to the Mount Victoria lookout point. It has taken far too long to get around to walking to the top, but today was EPIC! I walked to the lookout and on the way back home I got chips and ate them on the waterfront!
