Girls had a great day at Armageddon yesterday. Especially the eldest who got great comments on her first ever cosplay.
Oh to be as relaxed as a dog
Symphony tonight. Couldn’t resist faithless
A can of beer next to a half full glass. The beer is called Danner time.
Found it in liquor land Green Bay too
A brew kit set up. With pipes and three big pots on a frame
Fresh hops in the bottom of a bucket
Hops in the top of a kettle boiling beer
Experimenting with only using home grown hops in this beer. 🤞
Always loved how many stars show up when you look up at a clear night sky. even in not so rural Upper Hutt here in NZ. Makes you realize at least we can only fuck up this tiny blot on the universe.
Only in upper Hutt.
Can’t avoid @jpdanner.com. He’s everywhere

Picked some hops. Glad to get even this anemic harvest considering how much it was battered by the storms and the lack of sunlight hours.

Wonder where this tree branch in chews lane came from.
Round one done of #WAAPgolf. Such a fun experience but man it was hot out there. Here’s the tee off from hole one for T An
That was a 13 year old from Wellington teeing off. Wish I could hit that well
A selfie of me on the practice range of the golf course. There are players warming up behind me and I’m wearing a caddying bib.
First day caddying for an amazing golfer at the women’s amateur Asia pacific championship. Practice rounds today and tomorrow and then kicks off Thursday.

Brisket and beer day today. Love time with friends. And a good excuse for a good beer. Cc @jpdanner.com
Loving the twizzles in the ice dancing. 💃🏼
Hopefully everyone on the train carriage likes the smell of fresh baked bread. Bringing a fresh sourdough to the office.
Political drawing prompt: a rowing boat with a big stern wave, obviously going backwards, a depiction of Nicola Willis is rowing and Luxon is standing looking over the stern. His thumb is pointing over his shoulder towards the bow. A speech bubble says “the opposition will take us backwards”
A photo of cooked pulled pork, the skin has a good bark on it from smoking.
Christened my new smoker with two pork shoulders 😋
Did it even begin?
In the freezing stage of frozen shoulder I’m pretty sure. For those that don’t know, that means I can carry four bags of shipping fine but 10 seconds after reaching to take my sock off I’m in blinding agony.
I’ll definitely have a good enough crop in march. Will deliver you some too if you want them.
Bugger. I’ll get you some more plants. Sorry they didn’t take off.
Did they come back? Or did they fail? Happy to get you some new cuttings (but a bit late in season now) or will get you some rhysomes in autumn once I cut everything back.
Nice to be back in sunlight and longer days though.
Go away for a few weeks in summer and the hops take over the garden.
Robin Ince once more showing what an amazing person he is. It's tragic that we are in a world where opposing transphobia and hate means having to resign, while being transphobic and hateful means getting regularly featured by national media outlets.
Oh no. I’m away till Jan but can sort out some new cuttings or get some rhysomes to you in autumn.
