Yup
I’m going to say, or at least write it again.
Its
Friday all over again.
OK
this one seems to have come around a bit faster than normal, but that is
probably because it was a four day work week rather than a five day week. Oddly
enough back in New Zealand this weekend is a long one.
Queens
Birthday Weekend in fact.
Some kiwi’s
will remember it not for a weekend of
fun
Off work, but the weekend their house began to fall off the hill. Yes that's right I said
fall of the hill.
It happened in a
wellington hillside suburb called Berhampore and Kingston. It reminded The Man and
I of a similar but quite a lot larger event in Tauranga in the Bay of Plenty.
Then
the houses were undermined after a lot of rain. OK you might say a lot of rain
would do it. Of course I would, but in the Tauranga case the storm water drained
not into proper drains but into the ground.
Ground
which became so waterlogged it simply gave way.
Fortunately
in both events nobody was hurt.
