Wellington Maritime Museum. Worst moment – having to sit myself down in a remote corner of the shop because of much walking and clambering up stairs. Not Age! No, not age. Best moment. Watching the young women behind the counter doing little dances. They had forgotten I was there. Until I applauded. But definitely caused laughter and brightened up a those quiet Museum moments.


Worth a visit. And quite timely with that elephantine barge stranded across the Suez.
The visit was much enhanced with my superb spatial awareness, holding Mr Google’s GPS the wrong way, and losing an argument with the ‘usually correct’ gender over The Quickest Route.
I got lost on my way home – in Unity Books. I have shelves of unread books. And shelves. So after “Just looking thank you, I have a large number of books,” I figured I’d buy a book, ‘Numbers Don’t Lie’. Vaclav Smil.
