Miserable weather.

Stephen, because he is a loon, went and put in the little flaxlets and the ake akes that we got from our neighbor Phil. (Stephen instructs me to note that he was warm and dry the whole time, owing to being swathed head to toe in Gortex.) It’s good those went in, since they’d been languishing in a milkcrate behind the kitchen for, oh, a good few months.

I worked some more on the logo (our logo, that is, for when we become a big famous alpaca stud, hah hah), tracked down a couple places to get microscope slide cover slips, and put together an order for yet-more-trees (plus some grasses and shrubs) from Taupo Native Nurseries.

To get out of the house for a bit, we drove to Petone to check out the new “Mitre 10 Mega Centre” which, like Bunnings in Porirua, is essentially a Home Despot. Mitre 10 is at least NZ owned, though (Bunnings is Aussie).

In the evening, we stuck the girls around behind the house again to get them out of the wind, then Stephen worked on his game and I played some more Onimusha 3.

Still no new babies.
