Dear Tumblrs and FB pals I am in Napier New Zealand at the moment and life is revolving around family, but I am catching up with reading too and missing my not-real (as in “online”) friends.
However this is meant to be a holiday, and that means a holiday from news and obligations to blogs and social networks too. So for now I just want to share with you some pictures of this breathtakingly beautiful country (these are all by Chris Gin).
I am staying in cities but hills, sea and wild, sometimes windswept, beauty is never far away here — we do “live in” nature and identify with it, and our cities — apart from Auckland — are quite modest. I left 21 years ago in search of more noise but now love returning.

And now I have to unplug. Will be weaning myself off the net over the next day or two, off to NZ on hol on Friday.
May have a few hours online each day next week, depending on connections.
I plan to buy a USB modem and see how that goes with laptop but my holiday must not be about checking into Tumblr and Facebook! If you see me here too often please don’t hesitate to remind me, cos if ever I had a chance to read books again, go for walks and get face to face with real people as against figments of my imagination like you, Jamie ;=) this will be it …
