station identification

alright, just when i was 'warming' up to the ways of the kiwi...winter hits. it's way cold, i mean cold...i would take a picture of myself bundled, but the cold makes you lazy. so damn the stupborn kiwis and their resistence to the international building code, insulation, and no central heating. yeah, there's only so much tea a person can drink you know. i just found out, that they do sometimes use lambs wool bat for building insulation...which seems a really keen and eco friendly-ish alternative to the pink stuff (and it's pretty)...however, i asked today about the R factor....R2.6. brilliant... no wonder there is an epidemic of 'sick kid syndrome' in NZ, no wonder my neck hurts, and folks are generally grumpy on days like this. that is until they make their ways to the local pub...hotel bristol has a lovely wood burning stove.

aside from shivering in a heatless half a million dollar penthouse...it's great knitting and DVD weather and i think i will pop in a video (5 for 10 bucks for one week) and work my way down the home stretch of a lovely tweed vest...

p.s. currently off the bookshelf: garden of shadows by VC Andrews, it's a prequel to flowers in the attic.....remember that one, talk about teenage nostalgia
