Netani got bombed and made a speech in his stupor. Then he and Jemesa sang "Isa Lei" though they could hardly stand - I cried. | |
1972 | Bob Hayson got us a watermelon from Deve's. Cold shower almost bearable since winter began. | |
1974 | I put up all of the geometric shapes that I had cut out of construction paper. Used a science department time clock and had 4th formers race it while doing logs and they loved it. We had a practice session for the Open Evening group. 3S away on a trip so I had the 3E'ers do calculations with Paul Margettes using a calculator as a check. | |

Bought firewood ($1.35) and cooked supper. Did the Maple-Basswood Trail. Self-guiding and 1.3 miles. Would have been nice but the mosquitos were unbelieveable. Saw two ducks that looked as if they were stuck in a slime covered pond. |

2019 | W - We picked up Houghton (on crutches) and drove to Russell's via the gorge. We saw 2 wild piglets on side of the road. His raised veggie garden is doing great. Seven TPers came to visit Colleen and talk about Bev (e.g. Bev's husband injured and in hospital for 9 months, so they were poorly off from the start and never recovered fully from that setback) and everything else for 5 hours without a break for meal!!!! A lot of talk about scam phone calls and apparently Bev had been hypnotized over the phone. And we didn't play TP nor Reminiscing that Ian had brought along. Took the Matamata drive back - 1st time in the Kaimais for Ann. | |
