Woken up to the meowing of hungry Silver, the cat, to a quiet world outside other than the sound of the West Coast surf breaking on Muriwai Beach over the hills in the distance. People all asleep.
Happy New Year to everyone.



It’s been reasonably warm, sometimes even hoy during the sunny days. But suddenly, and it appeared like that happened overnight, the warm nights turned cold. As in 6° C during the nights. And even the temperature during the day almost halved.
