QE2 park in Christchurch
Family trip to QE2 park in Christchurch some time in the 1980’s.
My first experience driving a go kart. Unfortunately my feet couldn't touch the pedals so Dad needed to ride with me! 
Vroom! My very own jeep 🙂 Pity they didn't let me take it home. 
My brother Scott hooning around in a go kart. 
Sweet! Now I could dig some REALLY big holes! -
Pine Tree at 4 Clermiston Ave
The neighbours gave my Dad permission to “trim some branches” from their pine tree while they were away for the day. My Dad took a rather liberal understanding of the term “trim”!
Pruning begins …

Fishing
This was the last time I went fishing. As you can see, the last time I went fishing was quite successful 🙂 I caught 17 fish in total. Unfortunately the adults ate all of my fish, I never got to have any 🙁

Chess
Chess was a brief passion of mine in the early 1990s. At some point I lost interest; I’ll get into what happened to cause that in a later post. I picked it up again around 2019 and have been really enjoying it again.
The following picture was taken of me during an interschool competition in 1994 between Kings High School (my school) and Otago Boys High School.
