The More Civilised New Zealand

as happy as i was to receive pictures of Grant "engaging" in his hobby in New Zealand, i was equally happy to see images that suggest not all pursue wool based habits.

it is a delight to see that Katie has the same love of ice cream as her cousin James! it is also splendid to see that Grandma retains her great love of sugar coned ice creams, hence her apparently having two to herself!




it is possible that one of the ice creams Grandma has is intended for the chilling in the background Daniel, but i would be surprised if he got his hands on it!

i am at a loss to guide you on how exactly ice cream appears in New Zealand. my understanding of ice cream is that it is a dairy based product, but sheep are not generally viewed as dairy animals. i have no idea exactly how the sheep in New Zealand produce milk, or what quality it is of. clearly it is of a quality that allows things like ice cream to be made, so there you go.

the above is somewhat academic, i suppose - the important thing would be that they have ice cream, and that Katie is clearly delighted that they do!





i would imagine that these pictures were taken by Grant. if this be the case, do not trouble yourself with concerns about the sheep he was waltzing with in his daydreams, just enjoy these fine images!


be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
