They waited and eventually bought it, but in very degraded condition. Together they spent over 2 years full-time, recreating it with recycled timber. They also removed some sheds which had been at the back and extended and raised the back half of the house to get a clear and outstanding view of central Hawkes Bay across to the North and the Ruahine Range. (Built 1910)

So can't vote National. Can't vote Labour for another their even worse reason because Chris Hopkins said NZ should get used to living in (even more) debt. Unbelievable

We have presented concerts in Waikanae for several years. If you haven't heard us you will most likely be surprised at how different our sound is from recorders that were taught in schools. Our instruments range from the very deep, mellow contrabass to descant. Our programme spans classical music from some of the earliest (medieval) that was written to two 20th century tangoes. It includes very beautiful Baroque music and a suite of arrangements of three eastern European folk melodies.

Being healthy equals living life fully.
Living life fully equals joy and fulfillment.
Being healthy means looking after yourself in all those ways that you know of - nutritious food, exercise, sunshine, sleep, relaxation.
Being healthy also means looking after yourself emotionally and mentally and spiritually.
Some of these last 3 tend to get overlooked.
Having sessions with me can help with these.
Together we inquire into the emotions that are stored in your body, we inquire into the thinking structures that you have and I guide you deeper inside yourseelf to experience the truth of you.
Then you can be really healthy. You can live life fully and be fulfilled.
