Went on an introductory course to Art Therapy today, got home sick and cried. Everyone legged it out the door before they had to try putting any new found skill into action!! Now I have a whole new species to avoid up the High Street as well as the Travel Agents.
Spook met an unusually open Kiwi who said that he'd brought his family to Wanaka for a better life, away from the Cities and the North Island. He asked Spook 'If I asked you out for a pint, would you come? And do you think we could chat about all sorts of things? And would that be satisfying enough for you - I mean, you wouldn't need to come round for coffee, or anything?'
Spook laughed and said yes, of course. The man said that his wife desperately looked for meaningful friendships with other woman immediately and when it didn't happen she became very unhappy. He was so busy working and building their dream house, he never noticed. She went back to the city and left him with the three children!
And Pete tells him of several stories when people gave up everything in Britain and went home after two weeks!!!! And it was always THE WOMEN.
Welcome to Paradise. For men.
