Ohope Beach Again

Hi there

I've recovered from my Transmission Gully traverse, but have just spent nearly two hours trying to get photos to transfer from my phone to my computer.  Grrrrhhh.  And I used to be expert in new technology (in the old days).

Watching Weight

Hi there

Today, I started dieting (again, yes, yes, again, again, again!!!). It won't be a diet as such, more a cut-down.  I'll try to cut down on potatoes and bread, and definitely Pepsi Max.

Yeah, I know I've tried to get off Pepsi before, and I've always gone back to it.  If I can just survive those first three weeks without Pepsi, I know it will get easier.

What with cutting down on food and Pepsi,  it's going to be hard.  Today, only three hours into my diet, I snapped at my swimming friend, J.  Gosh, J, I am soooo sorry.  It's a good thing, J, that you are a warm, gentle, loving and forgiving person!

I was away at Ohope Beach all last week.  About 22c the whole time, and no rain.  The sea was like Wellington's sea in the summer. Quite warm. Here's a pic of Port Ohope:
