After a fantastic lunch at the Mission vineyard in Napier, we flew up to Auckland with Mr and Mrs Brewster senior and Patrick to catch their flight home. Although the parents were only in NZ seven days they put up a good show, we were all sad to say goodbye and will miss them and Patrick lots.
Not too many post wedding blues...
Before we could start our honeymoon/ travels we were treated to the first wedding of 2008, the union of Mr Mark Hoskin and Miss Emma (call me demure) Barrett. A classy event - it delivered the best of Auckland chic. The church flew the cross of St George and the kiwi fizz flowed. Erica didn't disgrace herself too much.... althought the father the bride did ask how she was feeling the following day. I bonded with a north island farmer who had also married a girl from Waipukarau - he told me after four days of marriage I'd had the best of it.
Accommodation was courtesy of Pittsy and Phil in Grey Lynn, only the best of Auckland villa living for us. Sunday night saw us celebrate Anna Taylor's birthday with fish and chips on mission beach, we had to admit it beats a sunday night curry in London. Everyone had the back to work blues, we only had the 'have to get up at 3.30am to catch a flight to Syndey blues'..... a different type of stress.
