Catching up - My last week on the up north

The week before I was due to leave Auckland Rupert called me reminding me that his exhibition was opening on Waiheke over the weekend. We arranged to meet at the ferry on the Friday and head over. Martin and Jane have a place on the island and very kindly said I was more than welcome to stay there, Martin even gave me a couple of days' work on their new place on the Monday. 

The exhibition was awesome, a collection of Auckland newest talent, through such a range of media. Rupert's Kauri dining table was in a prime spot in the main exhibition and I hadn't seen it finished, someone has to buy it, it's incredible. It was pretty cool to see the side table I worked on in there too, and to see peoples interest in it! The night got slightly less genteel pretty quickly after a few cocktails at dinner... So good to catch up with Laura and Dai, who I had crashed with before Christmas and Jo and Dom, who was completely unsuspecting of his big birthday surprise the next day. Dai nearly gave the game away somewhere into his third "sex on the beach" 

I spent the weekend catching up with family Kinnear, exploring the coastline, fishing, and being part of a family I spent so much of my childhood with. Its amazing to see people from home so far from it. DK and TC thanks so much for having me.

Martin and Jane  a belated thank you for everything, your generosity made those first couple of weeks so much more manageable. Hopefully I'll see you all soon!  ​​
