Rod and Margo, family and friends. What's on, been or might be, more or less. Saturday, July 28, 2012. Mary and I are both fine, after escaping from the collapsed Press building.

Dalmore: Why Dalmore ...
http://www.dalmore.net.nz/p/will-this-be-new-page-on-site-if-it.html
Rod and Margo, family and friends. What's on, been or might be, more or less. Some history behind the name. Whatever the details, there is no doubt that he was a strong and tough character.

Rod and Margo, family and friends. What's on, been or might be, more or less. Sunday, April 27, 2014. 2014 is here - another start! The shift and adjustment from town to suburbs has taken more adjustment than I first thought, but now at last things are falling into place. We now have an active WhatsApp family messaging regime that keeps us up-to-date on the vagaries of the day-to-day, so this blog will be rather more devoted to think pieces (which is a rather grandiose self description! The garden staff ...

Rod and Margo, family and friends. What's on, been or might be, more or less. Thursday, January 28, 2010. Every now and then we see items about attempts in the US introduce a first world quality medical system, with Obama's trysts at the corporate windmills the latest. Just makes the rest of us thankful for our socially distributive systems. As I write, we have a visiting nurse downstairs, administering a large dose of antibiotic to help knock over Margo's cellulitis. Meanwhile on the other side of the w...

Rod and Margo, family and friends. What's on, been or might be, more or less. Tuesday, March 16, 2010. And the unexpected big bonus: Your scribe now has a new line of scintillating coffee conversation to keep friends spellbound. Some may think that a lot of static in my phone calls is often an improvement. But, alas, I have discovered static and breaking sound (not news) was again occurring from time to time. Of course this raises questions: Was this the problem all along? For the new number to be listed.
