The view or two from my "office"

There was a young boy from Kirriemuir, who gave us rock and roll with bagpipes

In his hometown today, yes Scotland weather is still being amazing

Keeping to the Choo Choo theme. Shanghai Maglev to PVG. 7mins and 40secs at 300km/h (max unfortunately).

But it’s non-stop, like the MEL SkyBus….

If you’re ever on the Auckland north shore and want to check out the view of the city you can go to Victoria Wharf like most people.

Or you can make your way to the cul-de-sac at end of Stanley Point Road where this is the view.



The only better view is from the back deck of the house next door.


Stanley Point, New Zealand.

Widows and Bairns memorial in Eyemouth Scotland and what a treasure this was to see

Oct 14th 1881, 189 sailors died, leaving 78 widows and 182 children without a dad

The names of each boat is listed on the front and the families representing that boat above the boat name

Short video of me walking along it:
