86 Elizabeth Street

We have settled into the life at 86 Elizabeth Street. We arrived late on Tuesday early evening after visiting Jamie and Andrew at Lorraine’s house. It was great to see them and enjoy hugs.

They were still processing the events of hours ago and were tired. They wanted to talk and it was probably a help to them.

We then travelled the last leg of our long day to Ashburton - but not after the driver made a wrong turn exiting on to the main highway and we found ourselves in Rolleston with no direct access back to the main road. We ended up travelling some 10 km on a parallel road before getting back on track.
It was a tiring day and by ChatGPT’s reconning we travelled 497km - plus some in Rolleston.

June was pleased to see us, but we could not assess her emotions.

Yesterday was a quiet day, got in some stores and at 4:00 went to Judith's daughters for haircuts.

So today it has been quiet too - went into town and Robyn had her glasses straightened at Specsavers, bought a pair of 4.0 magnification glasses for Nan and went to Tinwald for petrol at NPD.

This afternoon we went for a walk down and through the domain. Put some stones on Grandi's plinth - the tree looks magnificent. And around to see all his and Nan's working tools in the old, refurbished bird aviary. See photos attached.
There is a viewing for Lorraine tomorrow which we might attend - it will give us some time in Christchurch.Okumaya devam et
