WHO MADE ME?

 
It's been a great day here today. I played tennis for a couple of hours this morning, then went to the gym for a workout. The bay was dead flat so I went for a swim afterwards to cool down. Magic.


I swam around for about 20 minutes and then stepped out to get my phone to take this photo.

That was the good stuff.

The afternoon involved housework - vacuuming carpets, washing floors, cleaning bathrooms and kitchen, dusting, cleaning the car, sweeping outside  + + + + ......

The Old Girl's been away in OZ for a few weeks and returns on Thursday so I've got to get the house in order. I may not get much time tomorrow as I have to take the car into the dealers for its 12 month service. This is an effort as we live a half hour from town. I take the car in at 7.30 and then hope that they do the job and have it ready by 11. I'll have to wander about town for a few hours to fill in time. I hate shopping so I'll probably go to the library and, if the weather is nice like today, mooch around the town basin (waterfront) where there are some nice cafes.



On Thursday morning I get the bus down to Auckland to meet The Old Girl at the airport. I'll stay in Auckland overnight as we're going to see BLANC DE BLANC which is described thus:


EMBRACE YOUR WILD SIDE AT THE NAUGHTY CABARET THE WHOLE TOWN WILL BE GOSSIPING ABOUT!

The Spiegeltent smash-hit from the acclaimed creators behind Madonna’s Rebel Heart tour, and 2015 Festival hit Limbo, is coming to Auckland!
Come to the place where the champagne sparkles, eyes glimmer, and the sensual and salacious combine for an evening of breathless abandon. BLANC de BLANC brings the finest cabaret and acrobatic talent from around the world, serving a blend of vintage glamour, high-end spectacle, and titillating acts to infatuate and delight.
But be warned: this award-winning show, sold out in London and at Sydney Opera House, contains everything you’d ever want from a burlesque circus. Packed full of incredible physicality, gasp-inducing danger, decadent artistry, hilarious routines, and glittering performances, BLANC de BLANC will be the toast of Auckland’s nightlife come March. Be sure to see what all the fuss is about!
          "A night of glamour, nudity and wonder ... simply unforgettable"



We saw a similar Spiegeltent show about 10 years ago and it was magnificent so I'm looking forward to this.

 Lynn will no doubt go to work on Friday and we get the bus home on Friday night.

I won't have time to ponder WHO MADE ME?.
