Classic car love




Every now and again when I'm at work the odd classic car pulls up in the carpark, over the last few weeks I've whipped my phone out and taken these 2 photos - I just love classic cars.

Linking up with Our World Tuesday, Through my lens, Tuesday Treasures, My Corner of the World and Wordless Wednesday.

I love classic cars too - my favs are from the 1950's and 1960's

How unusual to see them in an ordinary car park.

I love classic cars in terms of the styling. I'd rather drive a modern car!!

You and F's brother. He's got sheds full of assorted classics and 'muscle' cars, but as he gets older has realized life (or his life anyway) needs more in it than the constant job of caring for them.

...the Cadillac convertible is what we call a "big boat!" And the Chevy has a classic Two Tone paint job! Thanks Amy for sharing these Hot Wheels.

Those are big old cars. They must stand out on the roads. Lovely to see them in your carpark

Love those cars, too! We have two "around the corner", in the open, I always think it´s crazy to let them face the weather ... and people, but especially the latter leave them alone, which I love, as trust gets rewarded.

I´d also love a kiwi-box, but I just looked it up - thanks to Covid New Zealand has code orange to us which means it might be possible if I send something to you it might come back to me as your country accepts no parcels or only with huge delay from Germany... Maybe that goes the other way round, too? I love your offer, though! But please check before. I´d sure like to give you my address, via e-mail or FB-chat (is that safe? Is anything safe, LOL...)
I have one parcel sitting here since November for Perth... code orange...

Facebook... it´s a tad crazy.
When Ingo was severly sick an online friend from the US from the health sector helped me big, she also opened a FB account for me, without asking. So not give away my data she chose my surname in English. I find too many "Amies" in New Zealand, so I simply give you my odd link here, and you contact me OK?

They are a sight to see. I had no idea how many of them are in NZ until I saw my first Americarna (https://americarna.com/ ) tour. It's only in Taranaki, but might be a reason to plan a visit!!

I'm happy to see you at 'My Corner of the World' this week! Thanks for linking up.

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...

Family

  Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years.  This week we have: Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date. I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink. We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out. And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally?  I actually th...

Hail

Image
  Spring is throwing out some strange weather right now. We don't get snow where we live but it is visible on some of the mountains around us over Winter. Last week around 4.30am we had a very loud thunderstorm with hail. It wasn't until an hour or so later my daughter said this is what she saw out on our deck.  Clumps of hail all over the deck and on her hand. Apparently various other suburbs around town got it too.
