Matua

Another sunny day here so the Mistress and her daughter set off to get some more car photos with yours truly. Matua is a lovely place and would have been much better if the tide wasn't out. A good view of the Mount and a cruise ship today. 

Oh, heck she is still going on about going on a jolly cruise. I guess if she wins the lotto this week then my guess is certain to happen.

We still haven't had a discussion on this matter. I will wait for my opportunity, I think. 

Now I have some unpleasant news to report about the car. You see the daughter wanted to drive, and you know what women drivers do. While backing and not paying attention to the backing camera, into a wooden fence she went. A small amount of paint was taken off, together with knocking the back bumper out a fraction. 

That mistress wasn't amused or impressed. The day before she managed to squeal the Tyres too. Somehow, I reckon the mistress won't let her drive again as she's driving the mistress up the wall.

It's now counting down the time for our stay in Tauranga. We take off on Saturday and head to Taupo for the night, then goodness only knows where.

She's going to miss these adorable cats. Ziggy likes sleeping on her bed in the daytime and enjoys a kiss or two on the forehead upon her arrival home. The mistress better not start that nonsense on me or there will be real trouble around here.

Bindi, well she's a real Dag you know. This morning while the mistress was in the kitchen, Bindi put her paw in the water dish and then licked the paw over and over many times. This went on for some time and no camera was around. In the end, she put that paw in properly. Maybe she didn't want to wash and thought it was better in the bowl. We should have offered some soap. !!
