New Zealand calling - I have a woolly tale for you...

It was during the 1980's that one of the largest carpet manufacturer's in New Zealand received two major orders for pure woollen carpets.

The first was from the White House in Washington DC, for Shagpile carpet for President and Mrs Reagan.

The second was from Buckingham Palace in London, England, for Virgin wool carpet for Prince Charles and his new bride, Princess Dianna.

The two orders were speedily expedited, and delivered post haste.However during delivery the carpet factory's despatch department noted an error: The Shagpile was sent to London, and the Virgin wool to Washington.

The First Lady and a Princess share a secret!

A woolly joke, perhaps? All the way from New Zealand!

My new " Write Niche " site - my Kiwi blogsite...

My new "Write Niche" site - my Kiwi blogsite...

I have just joined a new niche blogsite - my "Write Niche" site. This site is designed for niche blogging; there are thousands of other blogsites out there for general blogging interests.

This gives me the opportunity to blog about my favourite subject - my beloved little country down in the South Pacific.

So if you are interested, or even just a bit curious why not pop over for a visit. Have a read and make some comments. I would appreciate it very much.

With the change to wintery conditions, there is an opportunity for a few topics to write about; our weather has that effect on us.

So come back here occasionally too, and make a date to visit my Write Niche blogsite.
