I started this blog in 2016 , mostly for me more a diary than anything else and certainly not something I expected anyone to read . Although its several years since my New Zealand trip it seems interest has suddenly manifested itself in the very small bit I did on Pounarmi which intrigues me . I looked it up because I had written it so long ago and thought perhaps there was more than I remember ,but, no its just a short record of my attempt at the ceremony surrounding the gift from my son . Anyway to those that read and enjoyed it and commented - Thank you .
