Stunt grunt

The Wild Nitro Flashback Stunt car was raring to roar out at Gourdie Automotive Ltd on Waimea Road yesterday. Gourdie’s are the home of wild sneaky auto creativity, their cars are legendary feats of colour and engine grunt. I was wildly in awe of the purple sparkly nitro tanks, maxed out exhaust system and pink fixtures - apologies in advance to the more mechanically literate among you. 

Imagine if we lived life with this kind of wild gassed up gorgeousness, flair, abandon and colour, and expressed it with the kind of oomph that purrs and growls under the bonnet of one of those machines.

Bug wit

On a mission to prevent bugs sneaking into the house, I set off in search of the ultimate insect remedy, albeit somewhat reluctantly. The not anything shall survive insect shelf, with it's wild array of bugicide options, suddenly loomed large before me.

To my great amusement, right in front of the Death To All Insects For Infinity Pack, was a screamingly large black bug about 2cm in length and 1cm wide. I wondered for a minute if this was the retailer having a hilarious day planting a fake bug there. So I touched it gently. It was happily alive, completely unfazed and getting on with it's business.

Clearly not bugged by the situation, it had been gifted a very wild sense of humour, which made me smile for the rest of the day. These are the times when I make mental note to never leave home without my camera, because it seems that things that make you smile pop up everywhere somewhat unexpectedly, so no pic this time.

It also reminds me that remaining larger than life is always the best policy.

High flying art

"Once I Learn to Fly I am Never Coming Down" - these wildly inspiring words can be spotted on a very cool random work of art that has sneaked out on a Nelson roundabout near Tahunanui.

In the vicinity, if you have the eye for it, look out for big black gulls soaring effortlessly on the updraft, while the younger ones flap wildly as they learn to handle the variations in tempo. They pull some pretty wild and sneaky stunts along the way that make you smile.
 

Soaring is what happens when we let excitement, happiness and joy reach right out to the tip of our tail feathers. Albatross are so good at it, they can apparently fly across the sea in their sleep.
