That happened before she got here, 2000 hectares right beside the city and although there was another huge fire she wasn't within 500km of the place so can't be blamed

No whale sightings this time.

I tell you what is odd, a fire engine followed me from Kaikoura for 130km :o

Am now in Hanmer Springs at a lovely B&B with a view of the garden and mountains in the background :)

Have been to the hot spas today and will do some mountain walks tomorrow :)

Like I've never been away Daph :roll: house looks like a bomb's hit it, I might just stuff everything back in the suitcase and put it out in the garage ready for next time :idea: and I'll brush off my broomstick while I'm at it :witch:

Isn't it odd how we can manage to live out of a suitcase when we have to,but need a whole wardrobe of clothes & shoes when we are at home :roll: :roll:
Good idea to keep your suitcase packed Ali :lol:

I take it you aren't including men in that comment Daph. Most men can manage for weeks, or even months in some cases, with just what they are wearing already :roll:

Welcome home Ali, have you warned the local fire station that you are back? :o
