Lovely, warm autumn day. Following up on a dental hygienist visit with a lunch treat at The Main Street Deli in #Greytown #Wairarapa. Fish & chips. A rare treat. No photo of the fish & chips because I’ve already eaten them 😎

The view from my window on a warm NZ afternoon. Rupert, Teegan, and Toffee sheep with Maddox the dog.
You can tell Maddox is a NZ dog because he always has a rugby ball with him 😎
