Trees

There’s a decorating competition at work and our corner of the office is taking it very seriously. There are lights, bunting, (fake) festive fare and not one but two ‘Christmas’ trees. 

A palm tree from our Pasifika staff and a Pōhutukawa from our Māori team.

Interactive Decorating

The lovely cafe down the street that has the naughty corner now has their Christmas decorations up, at perfect head height if you sit in the window. 

This was taken early enough that all the coffees were takeaway but great fun for later in the day.

Wait Over

Remember this from a few weeks ago?

It could have been pretty much anything but turns out it’s the base for some shiny new signage

Tip Top

Neither of us are looking particularly great but annual check confirms one of us is in tip top condition.

Going North

I’m just back from a week in the Far North at a librarian’s hui. Amazing stories, fantastic learning from colleagues and we were very well looked after.

It’s A Sign

Reverse parked, boots up, gear accessible can only mean one thing, weavers are in the house.

Spiders

I spent last weekend at the biannual weavers hui in Rotorua. It was massive, exhausting, inspiring and I took almost no photos because I kept forgetting. 

This week was Halloween and creative types have been leaning heavily into the spiders.
