Happy New Year to all readers! Year of the Rabbit: it’s certainly been a nice start to it here with beautiful, calm weather (especially after the winds yesterday). Blessings to you all!
And exactly four (lunar) months to Matariki. None of this newfangled solar-calendar Pope Gregory stuff for us here in the eastern hemisphere, thank you very much.
Actually, the fact that two calendars can exist side by side without anyone complaining is a nice thought. Let’s hope for the same when it comes to the many groups of people we have on our planet.
