40 years ago this week a wonderful (if controversial) album was released. It helped usher in a new genre of music. It still sounds fresh. #MusicSky

Well that was a bit of a shock. This just flew over the house at the height of about 150 ft (or so it seemed). Frightened the life out of us!

I don’t post much about wine here but, tonight we had this bottle of NZ Pinot Noir (with BBQ seared tuna steak) and it was just about perfect. Fruity, smooth, with just enough tannins to keep you on your toes. Cheers. 🍷

Walking down the farm track this morning there was a sound like a cat being strangled (it wasn’t!). Got to the bottom of the track to see a massive bird of prey sitting on the fence squawking away. (Took me a few seconds to get phone out, hence the poor photo)
