It's Pancake Day!
They don't really have it over here. Nor in lots of other countries as it turns out. I never really thought of that, assumed it was a common thing.
I had one savoury pancake with a chicken, pepper and onion cream mixture, and two sweet ones, one with syrup and one with banana and chocolate cream. Yummy!!!
Er.... my stories seem to be drying up :o( Maori lesson number 3 today and I did a good mihi I think (greeting, where I talk about my mountain and my river and things and name all my family and my tribe). Personal training session 11 of 18 tomorrow morning. Day 16 of no smoking today. Hopfully can start the silver jewellery course on Thursday, if the woman running it is better.
Um.... spent the weekend with Adam and his parents, who were visiting. That was nice. Adam is ridiculously busy, poor thing, but anyway, he's doing really well for himself and that's a very exciting thing. Played some pool on Sunday with a new-ish friend. Got beaten 3 times but never mind, he is quite good and I am out of practice!
I've realised I have about 7 weeks left in NZ. It's suddenly starting to go quickly which is strange, but does help with the homesickness, as do the new skype sessions with family who have gotten webcams and microphones installed.
I shall try and think of something interesting to say next time :o)
