We headed north to National Park .... actually Owhango which is 20km north of NP. We went up because it was the national launch of the Kan Tabs for Kidney Kids new tins. These 4 litre paint tins were sponsored by Resene Paints and a great for putting can tabs, wine bottle tops, ginger beer tops in fact anything with a good aluminium base. 
At the same time, we were presented with our Ruapehu Lions Club badges - we live the furtherest from our home Lions Club than anyone else lol!.

These bags, buckets etc make their way to National Park where they are bagged and weighed and then delivered to Wellington where the money raised goes to the Kan Tabs for Kidney Kids charity. Oh and if you are in Wellington, we are the collection point.
Then my lovely SIL got me to go to my tenth folder and post the tenth photo - in 2006 we were given tickets to watch the Hurricanes play some other team in a Super 12 (14?) match. They were hiding from the camera!
The wonderful Penny is making lots of yummy jam and so I can see scones, fig jam and cream in the future!Then I have such a great sewing project happening but I can't say too much about it at the moment as someone comes visiting here regularly and I can't let her know!
Off to watch Dancing with the Stars - go Geraldine!

That brings back memories Jenny - I was in Leo's in my late teen years - what a lot of fun we had.

Trying to get over to the post office tomorrow! Sorry it's taking so long - but I can assure you it will happen. ;-) I need to get a good box and some bubble wrap so they don't break.
Interesting about the tabs - we had someone collecting them at work.
You seem to get around that island a bit!! Well done on the well-deserved medals...I see Heidi is one of your blog buggies...she is one of my favourites...such a funny girl...her blogposts always have me laughing...have you met her IRL?
Yes, congratulations on your medals, Jenny!
