We'd love to housemind by the sea at Christmas-New Year
Because my mum (86yrs in 3 weeks)cannot travel big distance now, we choose to have our holidays close by with her in Northland or Auckland. We get 2 weeks off work starting from Christmas Day, I think....boss hasn't decided dates yet- and we'd love to live by the sea for 1 - 2 weeks! We could mind a home with animals etc. We choose the seaside because my mum was reared there and has lived on a farm since she was married so we want a seaside experience! She hasn't lived there since 1956. Does anyone know of any possibility that might be available? We can provide verbal references from neighbours & friends and because we are Christians, we can guarantee the home owner who trusts us will not be disappointed!
Lest we forget...
On this ANZAC Day, let's take a moment to remember and honor the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our country.
Tell us who are you honouring today. Whether it's a story from the battlefield or a memory of a family member who fought in the war, we'd love you to share your stories below.
