Thank you for such a lovely full answer Calsita. I have a chronic health condition, so the thought of having to organise it all and pay for it, was stressing me out terribly. I did think it would be paid for (which I can see from your answer it was) ... but I wasn't sure about the organising of it all. I certainly will deal with the hub to help me sort it. I haven't received the written assessment yet, so don't imagine it's going to happen for quite some time anyway. But thank you so much, you have eased my mind considerably. Re - going into the square: no, I haven't done that yet, but a friend and I are planning to take a look in Cashel St at the Pop up Mall on Thursday. Part of me is reluctant to go, but part of me wants to look and also see the positive things that are happening. When I was a student I worked for years and years part time in the Whitcoulls building on Cashel St, and I knew that area of town like the back of my hand. So, I am expecting to feel a bit upset to see it all totally gone ? :-) 2halls - 2011-11-27 11:51:00 |

5053 | LOL ellie ... the day my mother gets any of those is the day I sell her to the highest bidder! winnie231 - 2011-11-27 18:03:00 |
5054 | I thought I needed photo ID to walk through to the square so didn't 'cos I mislaid my licence in Blenheim. Now I know they're not asking for that I'll go in a fortnight - in Wellington next weekend. I expect I will bawl my eyes out, but that's Ok,. 2halls - you are welcome. calista - 2011-11-27 22:54:00 |

5061 | Mmmmm - Cherry Cake! winnie231 - 2011-11-29 13:13:00 |
5062 | Ohh yum! Rae.. :-).. do you have a recipe please.. thank-you :-) Cherries are Jenni's favourite fruit.. so much so that when she was in hospital so much with her lung surgeries in 2005, I sought them out as treats for her there.. and so much so that a Stella Cherry Tree was one of her 16th birthday presents.. though moved to a different part of the garden 2 years later, it's growing slowly - first cherries for her this Christmas.. she 'can't wait!' Hi Motorbo.. hope your date went beautifully last night.. exciting times for you.. have fun :-) Hi Pam.. your village will look beautiful.. and the gingerbread house classes sound fun.. Hi Calista.. welcome back.. so glad everything has gone well with your work on your home.. have been thinking of you.. Hi 2Halls.. best wishes for everything going well for you with your work on your home.. I'm hearing you.. chronic health issues have such a huge effect.. so hard to get things done sometimes.. take good care of you too.. Charlie hasn't been in for ages.. hope all is well for her and with their home too.. Hi Earthangel - great your new home is giving all you were looking for.. best wishes for your health too.. I've been helping a dear friend over the past few days - she's 96, lives alone with the support of her daughter and son-in-law (also my dear friends) who live across the road from her.. they've been away - just got a text that they're on the Desert Road on their way home - and I've spent a lot of time during the afternoons with her.. I'm exhausted, will have a cuppa with her shortly, then a biiiig sleep tonight. Take good care everyone.. juliewn - 2011-11-29 15:34:00 |

5100 | Thanks Elliehen, for posting the link.. have replied.. with an updated method of preparing tins, change in some ingredients or quantities, and mixing the cake.. a la 2011.. How are all your Christmas plans going? I have most things organised now.. just a few stocking fillers to find, and all done. Jenni's Partner will join us for Christmas and they'll spend New Year with his family. His Dad died when Mr 24 was 17.. Christmas Day was his birthday, so that morning, Mr 24 is making us the breakfast his Dad always made for their family on Christmas Day each year.. Eggs Benedict, bacon, etc.. I'm going to surprise them - hide a box of things - suitcase type gas stove, frying pan, etc.. in the car boot on Christmas Eve, then next morning will put the bacon, eggs, etc.. in a chilly bin, tuck it into the car after gifts are opened.. then say lets go for a drive.. we'll lay flowers at the cemetery for Nana.. then continue the drive over the hill and through Ohope to the Port, where we can sit somewhere along the harbour beach and cook the breakfast we've planned, on the beach.. a rekindling of special memories for us all.. I don't know whether Jenni has said to him that I'm creative and known for making surprise things special.. if not, he's got a few coming! Hope all your plans are going beautifully.. enjoy the preparations.. :-) Edited by juliewn at 3:01 am, Sun 11 Dec juliewn - 2011-12-11 02:52:00 |
