OK, OK - HERE'S ONE

Richard must be under the weather today as he's been nagging for a new post from me.

"Sorry Richard but I've been under the weather myself today"

It's been a stunningly beautiful day today but I've been inside sorting out all the things that The Old Girl wants me to take down to Wellington in the car.

I had originally planned to drive down on Friday, staying the night in Taupo and arriving Saturday.

Giving some thought to how women's brains work I decided to delay my trip and leave on Saturday instead and arrive on Sunday. This is because she takes possession of the apartment on Friday. I imagined that, once she's in it she will decide, after a good look around, that there are a whole lot of other things she needs. It's always best to be prepared - "Hope for the best but plan for the worst".


I'll pack the car up on Friday afternoon, hopefully leaving a bit of space for the inevitable extras. I just hope that these won't be heavy items. I'll already have the rather heavy memory foam mattress overlay, a solid wood wine-rack, wine, suitcases of clothing and bed sheets, duvets and towels. I really hope that two trips won't be necessary like the last time in 2020 when she rented a 'furnished' apartment.

"Giving some thought to how women's brains work"... had might as well claim to understand the mind of God as understand a woman's brain.
