Waitangi Day

Today is a holiday. Thank goodness. I am recovering from the first two days at school. Waitangi Day is a commemoration of the signing of a treaty between indigenous Maori, and British settlers. The treaty has caused controversy ever since it was signed. I'm fed up with the whole thing, however love the holiday. I'm not at all interested in politics.

Today I have posted a photo of the embroidery I completed recently for my super special friend. I can't see much being done during the term, which is a real shame. I get worn out by school.


We visited our piece of land today. You can see that they are well underway putting up the fences. I am already imagining the roses smothering them.
