Had the pleasure of meeting new Kiwi addition yesterday, Becky. We discussed "what technology perplexes you the most?". This elicited the second time in 7 days an Air Fryer has been the answer to an RWQ. The new super telescope, The James Webb Space Telescope, as it's known, perhaps more impressive than an air fryer, depends on who's cooking I guess. Office formatting causing confusing woes for Hils, whilst I can't wrap my head around how a camera captures a moment in time, I get it, but I don't, you know?

We nipped past The Hammer's fans, swerving low under the bridge as they swaggered above, meeting the other four at Nomadic Gardens. A brief panic due to locked doors was remedied by a foot up over the fencing and an "alright mate", Oscar responded promptly to the floating head - and we were in.

A woodchip wonderland ahead of us, but it doesn't spread itself now does it. Our octet shovelled and spread the new smoky wood towards the area leading up to the saunas, discussing gentrified sarnie prices, european mountain ranges, marathon ballots, cryotherapy and much more. Might I add, a very satisfying task, I'm a big fan of simple tasks that need team-work and grunt, that's exactly what yesterday was.

Next week we head to The Up Garden, sign up here for some midweek action.

Have a glorious week, in spite of that befuddling tech.

Till then,

B
