Sorry for the delay CP. Its actually a full on tertiary training course for trained people working in the clinical massage field. The venue is St Andrews village retirement complex (they must have a venue for hire), in Glendowie , or close by.

Same with me, SP. There is something unique about ANZAC Day. A day of remembrance for those who serve, have served and those who made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we have. Never, ever forget those who didn't come back and the number that are still listed as Missing In Action. I remember seeing one white cross outside the Auckland War Memorial...only three words on it..Known unto God. One of hundreds of thousands known unto God. Lest we forget >nzflag<

At least with a microwave, you've always got something to watch if there's nothing on the tumble drier or the TV :D Watching stuff... I always find it very relaxing to watch the water boiling in my new 2 kw Electric Kettle! Much faster than the water in the saucepan for my Potatoes! ...and as for Paint Drying... :o ... :unsure: ...! I've never got around to buying the new-fangled, snazzy "Air Fryer"... ..I'm still a happy bunny with my trusty Gas Stove (4 Gas Burners + Gas Grill), and Gas Oven for all my daily Cooking needs! It's amazing how many choices there are on Amazon...

Emfrat, that is indeed true. The "younger generation" don't do anything for me at all. The 'in crowd' are much better to be with because of the age thing.

Yeah, Square Home comes with some lookalike Windows phone widgets, but these are not that reliable, so I tend not to use them. And of course all the apps are Android. Yes, I know it's an Android phone at heart, it just looks so much better though.

Thanks CP and Charl . Hobby, back in the day had the best Airman's mess...great food, a great club (bar) Many a messy night spent there with the resident RNZN team. Charl, you are right , of course...progress vs emotion is a recipe for trouble. And the SNCO's and Warrant Officers Mess was even better! Great garden bar by the water. Had many a messy night there :cheers: :D

I find one year pretty much like another, or perhaps not. And certainly not particularly different at the end of any given December or the beginning of any January. But let me share this with you: the strange beauty of the number attached to this year.

Ok, resolutions then... I can't help thinking that it might be time to stop worrying and start enjoying life. I had decided to spend my life pretty much on my own after my son and grandkids moved to Australia a few years ago. Now here I am, living with my other son and daughter-in-law, their little boy and another on the way. My daughter (? -- I still call her that, although she officially changed her name to Theo last year -- luckily her pronouns are 'she' and 'they' so it was an easy transition) and her partner live in a tiny house on the driveway. I had hoped to take a break when my...

We get 48 500ml bottles per brew, for less than $1 each. Of course we had to drink a lot of imported stuff to build up a supply of bottles, but that couldn't be helped. Life wasn't meant to be easy :lol: Haha, love your commitment :cheers:

I saw... the Israelis are going: Guys, just leave all of this to us. You just muzzle your press, we'll do everything else, after we tidy up in Gaza and Lebanon and Syria. Maybe Iran. Doge Musk is going: will save a bundle! :groupwave:
