Anniversary Weekends in New Zealand – I’m off to the beach.
We have lots of bank holidays in New Zealand.
11 to be exact.

10 national days and then the anniversary days. And today is Wellington Anniversary day, so hubby gets a long weekend, and (if it stops raining for more than 5 minutes in the middle of what is supposed to be our summer) we are heading to the beach.
The only downside to bank holidays is the Surcharge you get in a lot of hotels, restaurants and cafes. Fortunately – our favourite haunt – Café Bambino in Carterton doesn’t charge it.

I would like to know if I could write my sad story to you.
Perhaps it may help me God I could certainly need some of that right now.
Please let me know
Jill
Jill,
Of course you can. I won’t be able to offer you any help myself, as that would be illegal, but you are welcome to pass on your story. I can either publish it if you want, or just read it and keep it private – its up to you.
While It is illegal for me to help you – its not yet illegal for me to support you.
I just also want to let you know not to panic if I dont get back to you straight away. Im dealing with some health issues which means I can sometimes be a bit slow in responding to people – but I will get back to you.
Hugs
Helen
