Talking about jackets I see Tom Cruise is wearing the flying jacket he wore way back when the first Top Gun was filmed in this 2022 remake - little bit of trivia
Well our new Ukrainian kiwis are settling in really well - their stuff has been here for nearly 3 years so the kids have out grown their bikes etc -the first thing they wanted to do was ride along the beachfront cycleway which they had been looking at online before the war - they just couldn’t get into MIQ so were unable to join their Dad - then of course when they got the OK he went back to Ukraine to move them here and the war happened .They speak really good English Mum has spent the last two years ensuring they know plenty about their new home - Robie took them past their school on the way to their house and they wanted to go in - he said they are very jumpy - a controlled railway crossing on the way home from the airport had the kids diving for cover .Now she is here her parents can come - bureaucracy gone mad - they had a big bread factory - not sure if they will be allowed to work - but none of them will be on the benefit .Hopefully he will be here in a month but it might be a while before he can work - even though he is on salary and is still getting paid she is uncomfortable with that so she will become the PaknSave baker .No doubt there will be problems but at least the kids are prepared and they have plenty of support because he is such a good bloke
Just as well there is only me to worry about don’t have a clue what’s on the menu for dinner
