Fantastic Vintage Wagon

but locally its still operational….…and so said….possibly the best advertising medium available.

Certainly most folk in town recognise it and can quote Leo’s name…so something must be working.

Ok a question for all browsers….?

First up IMAGE A.

Pray tell which of these two images here looks better…more realistic…whatever…

Second up …..IMAGE B.

……to you. I would love to gauge opinions of property lookers as to what looks better.

Or at the same time to your vision….what looks more appealing?

Hold on….what was that?

No you weren’t seeing things. ………..

Yes that is  grandfather clock poking out of the roof of a Morris Minor.

Just a local second hand dealers advertising medium, taking advantage of folks interest in “Antiques Roadshow” I guess?

After the Storm

Just looked up last Sunday afternoon to see the storm had passed….

….and there right next to it was blue sky….ah Nelson…”its back to usual.”

Weekend Morning

in Nelson featuring our Christ Church Cathedral.

Treated to Sun through Clouds tonight

and it wasn’t bad, even if I do say so myself.

Melrose…other than a 90210 sort of thing….

a name like that does have some serious history in this region.

Melrose House is unique, certainly from a local perspective, and it sure has plenty of admirers.

New to Nelson

is this idea of completely encompassing a vessel, the “Columbus”, in all weather protection

but I suppose it does have obvious advantages.And pollen season is soon to start again too.

The local paper the Nelson Mail reported on the situation here.

Big & Small – both can still exist

is a harmonic way.

As these photos show its tree ripened Golden Delicious

that are “bringing” the different sized birds together.

Just too much good kai here to worry about an argument over size.

Missed it now for 2011, you have…..

but there’s still lots of time, I reckon about 9 months, to prepare for the 2012 one.

And if you don’t quite “get it” …………then just do the usual.

Huh?

Yes just Google “green lipped mussel” and see what happens!

Or see what is titled here for New Zealand too.

Nelson – things in the sky this past weekend….

At no.1……………see if you can make it out…………

 

…and then at number two…love to hear what you think this is….(and just as importantly its absolute value to Nelson.)

…………….and then for number three…well this time its all about a “team effort”, after all who amongst you could resist Nelson region tree-ripened apples.
