DECEMBER 2005
Summer is here... My parents and youngest brother Erik had a wonderful stay (6 weeks) in New Zealand. We did the wild thing with Cave Rider, very enjoyable. Visited the Bay of Islands, Waipoua Forest, stayed in a bach at Kawau Island, explored the Coromandel Peninsula, and visited dad's friend (from his hometown Ezinge) in Wellington for a few days. We visited the Te Papa museum while we where there. Excellent museum!
Hope your Xmas was great!
And wishing you a happy & healthy 2006.

We've seen them in another shop, not realising that two of our own artists were creating them... Marilyn and Bob Blindell. They also create the stunning glass waka. A waka is a Maori canoe. The waka represents your journey in life.
Back in our beautiful Aotearoa! It's great to be home...
We wish to thank Denise for looking after our business while we were away, organising payments and shipping and much more! She did a wonderful job, going the extra mile for our clients and for us. Thank you!!!

A bit of catching up to do (mainly paperwork) and doing quite a bit of webdesign (updates and re-vamping a site) for our webdesign clients.
On a sad note, we've all seen the total devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in and around New Orleans.
Please donate through the NZ Red Cross, or with the Red Cross or other organisations in your country to help. American Red Cross.

Our 'long weekend' is in full swing. Still, it's business as usual.

ANZAC DAY in New Zealand is held on 25 April each year to commemorate New Zealanders killed in war and to honour returned servicemen and women.
Poppy Day is held on the Friday before Anzac Day. The proceeds from the poppies go to the Royal New Zealand Returned and Services’ Association (RSA) to support returned servicemen and women and their dependents.
