voiceramble: place, space, taste, and good morning. (Patreon)

hello loves

greetings from waiheke. still in full-on moving mode...they call "moving" here "shifting" which....i love. yes - i'm SHIFTING. 

we're still in boxes and settling and disorientation mode, but i managed to record 18 minutes of thoughts this morning before ash woke up. i am loving sending you these messages. it reminds me of back in the day where we used to leave friends long, rambling answering phone messages. remember those?

quick housekeeping: i'm still pretty much offline until ash starts school, but as of next week i'll hopefully be back in the saddle. 

and if you want to see a few seconds of me at karoaoke last night attempting to sing "never enough:' from "the greatest showman" at the local lawn bowling club (it's like the new zealand equivalent of a UK working man's club)....seek no further: https://www.instagram.com/p/CK01BLvp_nN/

i also sang "my way" by frank sinatra and began to slowly win the approval of my local postman. nick. all is going according to plan.

an addendum to the voiceramble,...i met our landlords today. an irish woman who married a kiwi and they came here twenty-five years ago and are currently living on a boat...oh my lord, the stories. it's amazing, actually, how much meeting them and hearing the stories of their home changed this place. 

see you all soon.

i love you.
