Apologies for those who have popped by to see my Friday Night with Friends efforts,
there really is nothing to see here today....
About 4 o'clock on Friday afternoon we headed down the road to pick up our daughter from the friends she had enjoyed a sleepover with.... one thing led to another, and before you know it we were feasting on a takeaway fish and chip dinner, a very pleasant night catching up over a few glasses of wine. So I guess it was Friday Night with Friends, just not the sort in my original plan!
So of course I thought I will sew on Saturday night, and virtually the same thing happened.... some friends phoned at 5pm to see if we would join them for their first BBQ of the season, and so that's what we did! SO we have had a great weekend being social butterflies, now who knows what will happen tonight.........??
But of course it isn't a blog post without a pic or two, I found these lake reflection photos taken on Lake Te Anau in beautiful Fiordland National Park back in May, in fact I think it was on Mothers Day......
.....so I'll catch you again soon, maybe when there's
been some sewing finally done...... Nicky x

We will forgive you....sounds like you've been having lots of fun. Gorgeous photos, we loved Te Anau when we were there and hope to go back again one day.
Nicky those are the best nights to have. Nothing can beat an impromptu fish n chips night with friends. It has certainly been an amazing weather weekend lending itself to bbqs.Enjoy while you can!
If you can't be stitching sharing a meal with friends is just as much fun... what lovely reflections in those pictures...

What beautiful photo's Nicky. We sure live in a stunning country. Hope that your hands are 'well' soon and that stitching delights will be yours again. Yeah for BBQ's!
Sounds as if you had a lovely time sharing FNWF, catch you next time !
beautiful pics Nicky,hope you had a lovely sunday.xx
The best laid plans. Sometimes things done on the spur of the moment are the ones we enjoy the most. Always next time for FNWF. Hugs......
Aww well ya can't be inside when the lovely NZ weather is here :D
Ah well you might not have sewn but sounds like you had a lovely evening. Hugs, xx.
If you are going to miss a stitching night, there is no better reason then supper, wine and friends. Love your photo's. One day I promise hubby and I will get to New Zealand, worked with a guy from North Island for two years, he sold the location to us and your photo's keeps up the desire to visit.
Unexpected time with friends - feeds the soul - how wonderful!
The stitching will be waiting for you whenever you get to it Nicky x
How are your hands?
What do you mean 'Nothing to see'... those photos of the lake are stunning! NZ is going on my bucket list... especially since you have good Fish & Chips there too. Glad to hear you had a fun weekend.
Oh wow stunning photos - Isn't New Zealand beautiful!
Love Leanne
Sounds like you have had a lovely weekend! Your photos are amazing Nicky.
I have those weekends too...plan sewing time and life intervenes! Sounds like a nice weekend.
Beautiful photos Nicky, Its great going out and catching up with friends. Glad you had a good weekend.
I wouldn't give up a night out either... as there is always next month! :)
Unexpected or unplanned teas and visitors are the best! Glad you enjoyed them! Photos are gorgeous!

Beautiful photos and it sounded like a great FNwF!
It was Friday night with friends after all..hope you're enjoying the burst of good weather ..
Oh, such amazingly beautiful photos. They remind me a bit of some of our Norwegian mountains and fjords. I have unfortunately not been to New Zealand myself (though my aunt lived there for years, and my cousin was born there), but have been told that it is not unlike Norway in many ways. I hope to be able to visit one day.
Thank you for your kid comments in my blog. Much appreciated ;-)
Wow, wonderful pictures.
Greetings Grit
The lake photos are just spectacular!
Your Friday night (and Saturday) sounds like fun. Sometimes the unplanned things are the best :)
Sounds like you had a better offer, what a fun weekend... Beautiful pics of Lake Te Anau, we stopped there when we went to Milford Sound the first time we went to NZ, so picturesque and peaceful....
Beautiful photos!!
Hugs,
Tatyana
