Avoidance tacticts.

I didn't take in photos today so I just posted this one from Spooks cycle with Josh - looking back towards Queenstown.

Josh called by this afternoon and stayed for dinner. He will be moving on soon. Spook has not had much time to get out with him, which is a real shame. This is the guy who would make an athlete of Spook!! He may go to Nelson for a while so hopefully will be able to get in touch with The McNeillys' and Robbi and Roddy.

I cleaned for 3.5hrs, which will not make much of a dent in the snowboarding bill. We will manage to get everything, by hook or crook, and then just settle in to Wanaka for the winter. At least we will have no need to leave the place. It will be sandwiches and no fancy coffees up the slopes. I will need to negotiate a day off every now and then, as that will be when I have plenty of work. Mary wants to divvy up the 7 days between us and pay me to take on a supervisory role. I can hear people sniggering at the very thought!

I didn't do very well at my pledge to go to Badminton. Josh was here, tea was late, and I was enjoying doodling in my sketch pad. The usual - do housework to avoid running, running to avoid painting, drawing to avoid Badminton. I need to apply some positivity to this.......
