Here, There and Everywhere

I now have so much material for blog posts that I could bore you for months.  As it is most of it is likely to remain unused in my iPhoto bank for eternity (ok, for a few years anyway).  I shall try and distill some of the more compelling and/or less boring photos from the last month and get them onto the blog before I eventually leave for the other end of the globe (in 63 sleeps).  I think that I said that once before either on this blog or on Eagleton Notes and then never managed it.  I'll try harder this time.

They are a sort of hotch potch.  Rather like this suit walking down Emerson Street last week:


Or looking out on a wonderful world through a window:

Or just being together:


Or perhaps being alone:


Or this curious pink shop (which had just been flooded up to the mark on the black-board by the door) at Kaiaua near Miranda on the Firth of Thames:

    Despite living in a textile industry town, that is one piece of fashion I have not yet seen on our streets! Looks a bit... undecided...

    Wonderful window view and bird pictures!

    I just love your bird photos! The look on the face of the woman looking at that suit cracked me up!
    However do you pronounce Kaiaua? WAAY too many vowels in there for me! :)

    What an outfit! That's not exactly the high fashion I expect to see in Napier. Love the view from your hideaway window.

    I just wonder how his/her partner felt walking alongside. I feel embarrassed enough by Jo's multi-coloured socks!!

    Lisa: Kaiaua is pronounced Keye (as in eye) ow (as in ow I've been hurt) a (as in cat) = K-eye-ow-a

    Thanks for your comments everyone. It was Art Deco Week so dressing up is quite the thing. He had a beard too.
