Since retiring from working as Head of Art at a school, my Dad has become an art examiner marking International A Level and GCSE Art. As part of this he gets to travel around the world visiting schools. I am sure he is busier now than when he was working full time - some retirement hey! On a recent trip to New Zealand he came across these wonderful corrugated iron buildings and took photos as he thought that I might like to share them with you on the blog. Hope you enjoy! It is enough to make me want to visit NZ to see them, despite the VERY long flight! Perhaps we could think about creating one in the garden although I am not sure what our neighbours would think!

  1. I'm from NZ and have been in the UK for 4 years with my husband and 3 children. Thanks for sharing these, helps me remember how cool home is. I'm past the homesick stage, thankfully.

    It is a torturous journey home, was 32 hours door to door last time and that was a "direct flight" via LA with a 2 hour stop.

    Love the blog, have both books, am also a keen baker and needleworker.

    Thanks for really brightening a cloudy dull day! XXX :)
