Well it seems that Robert is getting way too excited over my new church The Church of the Blessed Curmudgeon.
It's time to cool things down a bit so I'll park THE CHURCH OF THE BLESSED CURMUDGEON for a while and update you on what we did this Easter. What better way to do this than write a post in Robert's style.
Geoff came to stay from Friday through Wednesday which provided good company along with my sister and her tribe who came to play snooker on Sunday.
Geoff had sent up by courier a 6 pack of Te Mata wines (I'm sure that The Wine Guy will write about these) plus he brought another few bottles with him. We didn't get through all of the wines and have a bottle each of Coleraine and Awatea to drink sometime in the future.
We also managed to knock off two bottles of Champagne, a bottle of Deutz Rose and another German riesling. We did well.
In addition to bouts of drinking we went for walks around the area including Ocean Beach ....

....... and showed Geoff the natural jetty at Taurakura Bay.
My great nephew gave me a painted Easer egg.
On Wednesday we visited at the outstanding Hundertwasser Art Centre and had lunch there.

No painted Easter eggs for me but I think I'll survive.
Thanks Gloria.
I chuckled at the way you copied my style.
Yes I was sucked in to taking you seriously. C.S.Lewis advises in "Mere Christianity" to avoid atheists who have no firm stance and just waste time. Also he talks of a "Boys approach to religion", meaning people who have a childish view of God.
