And talking of christmas trees…
On Saturday night we went to Cuckoo in Greytown - home of the best pizzas in the Wairarapa (and a cook who doesn’t mind making the wonderful Eggs Napoli breakfast dish – minus the bread and with an extra egg- at any time of day because I can’t eat Pizza!).
Cuckoo has recently been taken over – the owners Tim and Chelsea having skipped off to Melbourne - so no more visions of Tim frenetically running round the place. But the menu remains the same and is well worth a visit. Most people visiting Greytown go to the White Swan because its well known. However its pretty crap – so forget that and go have a decent meal at Cuckoo.
Getting back to the point – while in there – we took a photo of thier christmas tree. The New Owners (Brian and Janine) certainly have a great sense of humour. For all those people who like are a fish out of water doing a southern hemisphere chistmas – I thought you might enjoy it:

You’re not wrong about the White Swan! When we returned to Greytown Saturday evening, we were keen for another drink and some nibbles. Food was not available (not even a packet of chips!) and when we tried to order wine from their wine list everything we wanted was out of stock! One sip (of a bottle of their left over wine supply) convinced us all to walk out and seek a more accommodating bar.
I love it!
Thanks for the invite
