Pictures to Share

Hi again, Its wonderful to have our men back home after a 10 day "working trip" from Chch to Queenstown in the sprint to the finish of the Silver Fern Rally 2010. Thought I'd share a few pictures that were taken on our camera during the event. Garry says, he had an awesome team of guys in his crew this year, thanks for all your help, humour, encouragement and hard work, it all helps to make the time away easier and successful.

Christmas Advent Calendar

This probably wont interest all the guys out there, but for the girls thought I would share how I treated myself with a day off from the kids last Saturday while Garry was still away at the Silver Fern Rally.

This is what I created.

Its an advent Calender for December in the lead up to Xmas. Its got 24 little drawers for the kids to open for their treat.

It was wonderful to spend the day in adult company and having a very busy, industrious, creative day building, glueing, spray painting, and hammering!

I was wrapped with the final result, which hopefully will last for years to come, and may even become an heirloom.....

Thanks Jacob for bringing it home with far less battle wounds than in 2008. Jacob Scannell and co driver Chris Lancaster finished 15th from 27 finishers and 9 withdrawls in the Silver Fern Marathon Rally for historic cars.
Well Done Guys.....

DAY 6 Silver Fern Rally

Hi All,

The Silver Fern marathon car rally is going down to the wire.

If any of the leading drivers suffer a puncture tomorrow it could make the difference between first and second in both events.
