Ah, New Year resolutions. I make a few every year at this time and, amazingly, I find I have kept some of them. Inspired by happy memories of our nine month stay in New Zealand I suggest some resolutions for 2016, in no particular order of importance.
Travel and explore new paths
Relax when you get there
Enjoy the view
Build something
Read more
Don’t be boring
Be encouraged
Share
Be brave and you’ll get across
Discover variety, and be charitable
Ignore false blandishments
Seek and ye shall find
Keep looking
Heed good advice
Step gingerly
Or just take the plunge
Seize opportunities
Go to the beach
Splash in the sea
Be busy
Don’t quit
Enjoy the company of good friends
Make new friends in high places
Get the best…
Learn more
Discover good food and wine
Dine in style
And relish the simple things
Be healthy, spicy and fruity
Discover nature in the city
Be colourful
Always cook with wine
Love like bread
Applaud the beauty of sunset
I raise my glass to a Happy, Healthy New Year and its far horizons!
What an amazing set of photos and very apt comments.
Recognised Lake Matheson and the ‘shared’ bridge.

Thank you Hugh! Good to see you here.
Hi Brett .And a happy new year to you also.
Nice one, hope you can keep them all.?? Well try at least.!!
Hope all is well with you, I have had a few blimps in 2015, but the drugs should kick in soon.!! with maybe an operation early 2016.( tell you all about it when I next see you)
Anyway, have a great New Year, and hope to see you at some tasting in 2016.

Loved this! These photos reminded me so much of wonderful times I’ve had in New Zealand in the past. Must start saving up for a trip! Lots of love from Jenny in London x
Thanks Jenny! Back in UK (and France) now after our adventure downunder. New Zealand is such a delightful country and we enjoyed the opportunity to live there for 9 months.
