I loved the bit about sunning your flaps, in fact I loved it all… but you skipped the explanation about the presence of a large rock on your roof. Didn’t the builders finish the job? My own roof will soon be replaced and I’ll keep a beady eye on the builders and the rocks in the garden.🤣
Hey from SMUG-AS-SHITVILLE, as we like to call Greytown! Only lost a dead tree. A nice clean drop, took out a fence and the neighbor's silverbeets. Another joy of a read, Leah. My mother in America gets her NZ weather news from you!
We are the rugged people who sun our labias in the rain and wind, we need no smug and we wave a careless hand to the sunsets, having experienced them all before and finding them non noteworthy. We are living an elevated existence.
Loved this. Loved the photo too - only you could look smashing in a Red Warning storm after heaving a rock off a roof, baking a cake, and chopping wood. What a woman!
Weather’s looking ok for Monday Leah, best warn the neighbours!🌞
(Thank you, the labia-sunning was exactly the laugh I needed - and the writing of the rest is beautifully apposite, as per.)
This was fabulous!!! Thankyou, I love Wellington!! and yes for me cake is always the answer.

Oh your lovely Mum!
Lord, your fence - thank goodness it was merely silverbeet, NZ’s least fashionable leafy veg

A great account of a storm. I am very sorry for people who have never lived in Wellington.
How do they measure life ?
‘Well, the roses needed a drink.’ I rather love stoics who downplay apocalyptic weather! ‘Bit nippy out.’ Etc. Glad you weathered this battering.
Good cords. Cords don't stay good for long 👀
Love it!
