Packing it in …
3 (yes count them 1…2…3 !!) Days to go
Well I’ve been pinned 
had my chakras balanced 
shoved stuff in my case … 
Just some hair titivation 
and
2 more official sleeps 
(not counting the unofficial catnaps I keep having now its cooling down a bit)
and I’m off 
Hope to keep adding bits but may be a bit ‘busy’ 
wonder if I’ll recognise my guide ????? 
THE PREMIERE Tour Guide in all of NZ (personal service 24/7 I’m assured!! 
!!!! )
I’ll try to post again before I zoom off

When Margaret Delaney met Margaret Delaney!
17 days to go …
Well history was made today when this Margaret Delaney met her namesake, FGM and lovely mate Margaret Delaney! 
On a glorious Summers day (weather ‘specially ordered 
) both of Murray’s MD’s got together to swap notes …. !!!! 
(its ok I’m still coming out 
)
It was so lovely to meet Marg and Richard (and Mary and George 
)
Had great fun ‘ganging up’ on R 
…
Think we’ll have to wear name badges when we meet up in NZ … 
But most definately sisters under the skin!!!! 
Here’s a pic of the three M’s after a visit to the pub
A lovely day – lovely friends – but still can’t wait to catch my plane

Monsoon season!
26 days to go !!!!! 
Who needs a sauna when you can live in Rugby and get it for free ….
Its been very very very hot for the past few days but today have had 2 hour thunderstorm (cue hysterical kids 
) and small monsoon season 
Would have been ok except had to get 54 kids to Rugby school for a performance we’d been invited too ….
Sometimes the people I work with (well some of them … ) are a joy to work with cos they rally round …
Big UP to our lovely secretary (and hubby) 
for helping us transport the little dears …
Of course as soon as I’d dropped off the last lot and eventually found somewhere to park the rain stopped and the sultriness began all over again ….
Still soon be climbing back into my winter woolies and heading to the place I really want to be ….
The Other MD has arrived on these shores … can the nation cope????
for now ….
