Dunedin, New Zealand, my city - my people

Very fortunate man.

On Sunday 27th April I spent the morning at the Central Fire Station, Dunedin. Some of the guys had decided to establish "Gold Watch", some sort of regular gathering of retired fire fighters. They were gathering for morning tea - some savouries and of course the traditional Fire Station scones. I was told I should be there. I wasn't sure I would know many of them but decided to come anyway. I knew all of them in fact and really enjoyed catching up with them. I appreciated the way I was made to feel that I had a right to be there, and was just part of the place. It is for me really special.
