A healthy glow

Day one of our road trip and I’ve managed to get sunburnt sitting in the passenger seat driving from Wellington to Taupo.

Arctic

Have been packing for our North Island roadie, with lots of light, summery garments suitable for the winterless north, and then today I heard on the radio there’d been snow on the Desert Rd.

Fleeting

Did I tell you I almost got a parking ticket the other day?

The land of giants

Am in Cath lab with an acute case. The patient, the cardiologist, and the pacing tech are all over six feet tall.

Music update

After my orthopaedic trauma list finished the other day, the registrar told me that the music I’d been playing was actually good for operating to.

GI upset

I was quite right to be concerned about delicate doggy bowels after the smelly farts we were enduring the other day.

The winter game

Very pleased my husband was able to get us tickets to the Bledisloe cup test match today (an important rugby match between NZ and Australia, for the uninitiated).
