Yay! Right, at least we are participating. 
Today, I had to go see the editor of a local newspaper at Riverton, have my photo taken and a speel on the Op Shop. Haven't seen the other one published yet.
Popped in to see a mate, and lots of coffee and yapping, came home late with a boot full of yummies for the shop.
It's been full on since, feeding everyone, except the chooks, they were in bed, high up in the trees at the bottom of the paddock. They have a henhouse but never use it. 
Turned out another cracker day.

Wow, I think I have unliked myself somehow on fb. I see it is showing like on here now, if I was still liked it would be showing unlike. Confused - don't worry - I do that to people.

Is there such a word as 'unlike' Aggie, I was taught 'dislike'. At least I'm not on showcase at the moment. 
Sera I had 3 dogs and two cats waiting for me, the chooks had given up. I didn't win any money, but I spent some. 
Dr L the Bluff Oyster Festival is run by the locals again, and its going strong. I'm glad you didn't come a few years back when I was 'entertaining' there. A roaring twenties Miss Bluff 1924, someone suggested I must be pretty old, and another thought I was a 'Trannie.'

New Zealand is growing poverty at three times the OECD average
According to the OECD at least one in five New Zealand children live in severe or significant hardship, while at least one in four children lived below the semi-official poverty line.
According to figures, the richest 1 per cent of the population owns three times more than the combined cash and assets of the poorest 50 per cent.
New Zealand had gone from one of the most equitable societies – in terms of income distribution – to one of the worst.
This is from Professor Darrin Hodgetts, a Waikato University professor.
