Continue reading →: Countdown Ferrymead Work StartedI’ve heard that April next year, this spot will have a Countdown Supermarket on it (and a nice one too). I’m amazed at the progress they’ve made already on this site. I’ve really missed not having a local supermarket so it will be wonderful once it is back. There was…

Continue reading →: Retropolitan on Fitzgerald AvenueI’ve been meaning to check out Retropolitan for quite some time. I finally got to have a look around and it really is packed full of wonderful retro things. I ended up buying a couple of things, an old style letter holder that hangs on the wall, and a little…

Continue reading →: How much is that doggie in the window?This wee guy is proving to be a wonderful customer service rep at Hot Damn! in New Regent Street. He’s allowed to come to work with his owner, and he kept us entertained with his shy antics. He would come over to check us out then run off, not too…

Continue reading →: Taylors Mistake WalkwayIt’s been a few years since I last did the Taylors Mistake Walkway. Today was a typical Canterbury sunny winter’s day, so a great day to go for a walk by the sea at Taylors Mistake. I’m not sure if the boulder on the side of the hill is erosion…

Continue reading →: Lyttelton Festival of LightsThe street party for the Festival of Lights was held tonight in Lyttelton. I went along with the camera and tripod and was totally unprepared for the number of cars and people. It’s a popular night out, even on a short winter’s day. The locals really get into the spirit…

Continue reading →: Back to the Bridle PathThe Bridle Path re-opened in the last few days. It was closed after the February 2011 earthquake, as parts of the track were in the direct path of some very large rocks that were shaken loose by all of the quakes. It’s a long time for a track to be…
