The ups and downs
Amazing evening at Vecta Arena experiencing the majestic performance of Nick Cave. Simple but extremely impressive backdrop and lights.
Dad’s Day Out – a secret location has been on the calendar for a while. There has been a fair degree of speculation as to what it was but today all was revealed! And it didn’t disappoint! Aonghas, in his own words, was so overwhelmed that he “got quite emotional and even cried” when he heard his favourite song being played. The Coldplay concert at Mount Smart stadium was incredible. A real multi-sensory experience with a great atmosphere. I got a few good photos but this one has to be the pick since it has now gathered over a thousand likes and several hundred retweets!
Plumbing update: we still have a leak!
Aonghas is enjoying his early birthday present and we are enjoying the tunes. Caught this moment as Nigel tried to help him with finger picking… Love seeing my boys together.
Here’s a cool photo of Aonghas engrossed too…
Impressed that Gus is sticking with learning to play the guitar. He sounds quite tuneful…! Self-taught through watching YouTube tutorials and using the ancient books I had as a teenager.
