giraffes

I love this picture I found on the web yesterday. gorgeous.

so we've sold rose, one way or another, we think. we've taken a retaining deposit from some aucklanders, one of whom is flying down on friday to make 100% sure it's the van they want. if they change their minds, we had a phone call from the netherlands this morning from a couple who're emigrating in april and also want to buy it. so that's good news.

I've had a helicopter buzzing around on the other side of the lake for a couple of hours now, looking like he's doing monsoon bucket practice over farmland. I'm quite glad I'm going out & getting away from the choppy noise now.
