We are packing and cleaning the house so we can hand it (and all the cats) over to the new guy and his family. I hope they enjoy their stay as much as we have.
It's our last week here in Paradise and today is Chris's last day as the CITC pharmacist. With our last few days we are planning on doing lots of touristy stuff and lazing on the beach. Good times.

Last Day at Work
work, work, work.
chocolate cake, speeches.
Patted the printery cat farewell.
then I walked off into the sunset
at least that's how I remember it.

The Mullet is a dodgy fish
You know the mullet, right? No, not the fish, the haircut. Anyway, there's this expression about the mullet, describing the hairstyle as "Business up front, Party in the back"
And that's what I think of when I go past this building in Avarua harbour.
One building. One item in common. Two very different... facades.

Parking Etiquette
When I first saw this parking sign (middle) outside the Muri Sailing Club, I was amused. A bicycle was chained to the pole where the main sign parking was, & to me it appeared that the sign referred to the small area around the pole and not the area in general.
Then when I got home and looked at my photo I noticed the other parking signs in the background. The red sign says "No Parking - Sailboats only - others will be sunk" and the "Motorbike Park" has been ignored, and the area is used for parking boats.
Then I read the middle sign again... And it didn't read quite how I first thought. I thought it said "Members' Parking" but it is saying parking members...
At least that only happens on Saturdays...
