Day 27 Party Party
Woke very reluctantly … and started to put things in me case even more reluctantly ….. 
First event of the day was to watch the All Blacks beat the Springboks in the company of Richard … 
Following the All Blacks is definately a religion here … 
EVERYONE watches it
(Found a kindred spirit with Auntie Margaret too – she’s mad about both kinds of rugby !!!!)
Then we went to see M’s Mum and Dad … followed by a last trip to Glenfield shopping mall ( beats shopping in rugby any day!) and a legendary raspberry and white chocolate shake … very very yum!! 
Back at Margs was a little ‘Welcome Home Bon Voyage’ soiree … met more lovely people – had very special vege muffin/pie and some gorgeous peach voddie … 
and the deserts to die for … couldn’t choose so had banoffe pie/Pavlova/carrot cake and peanut butter bites (VERY rich! ) all in the same bowl 
All were home made too – so if I come out here to live I’ll have to brush up on my culinary skills …
