We had a great time visiting and gave him a wee rechargeable MP3 player with a built in speaker on it - pre-loaded with about 30 songs sung by his daughter (beautiful wifey) so he can listen anytime he wants.

I also took the sons (24 and 26) out to #Mangawhai - where I lived as a 14-16 year old. Showed them the beach, and the house we lived in. Gosh, it’s grown a lot out there - bigger than #Wellsford now. I was amazed to see houses all over the paddocks I used to mow on the tractor as a kid.

While the #RWC2021 game was about to kick off, I was about to embark on an evening #MangawhaiGardenRamble (and then a scramble back to a tv screen). I was too slow to catch the two #tui who'd been feasting moments before #Gardens #Harakeke #Mangawhai
