As for "Anon" and his/her opinion about Heather's car ... they need to just zip it - it is none of their business and you did not ask for their feedback. It's great that you are able to help Heather out and very kind of her to give you the car. I would hate to think how much the parking costs must have accrued over that time.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02670323685547211097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-64560170640085617362021-01-18T18:38:50.103+13:002021-01-18T18:38:50.103+13:00For all who commented on MY car that I wanted to g...For all who commented on MY car that I wanted to gift to Chris.<br />None of you are owed an explaination, but I will give you a little. We are NZ citizens and yes we can come back to NZ but have to pay for managed isolation in two countries,our April 2020 flight was cancelled. Our intent is to visit our aged Mother and return back overseas. With the uncertainty of the everchanging border closures, we are not going to risk not being able to return back overseas as we have done for years, going between the two countries for the permitted period. In the last year, I have been diagnosed with heart and lung issues which makes me high risk to travel and require surgery to correct. So returning to NZ is not possible for me, my Husband is hoping to see his Mother as soon as self isolation is possible, having said that he is reluctant to go and leave me with my health issues.<br />I have been a long time reader of Chris's blog and respect her enormously, she is kind, always helping others and is a loyal family lady.<br />I am pleased to have the car out of long term parking, which has now cost more than the value of the car.<br />It was MY choice to offer Chris MY car, and do not want any financial payment, she has kindly offered to send over our personal gear in the vehicle which we are grateful for.<br />I am constantantly amazed that so many people leave comments that are negative and are not willing to be accountable and leave their name.<br />Chris is always paying if forward and helping others, and this is a small gesture that I can pay if forward to her, as she said and we both agree, it is a win win for both of us.<br />Please, if you can't be gracious in your comments, don't leave any, more kindness is what is need in our world.<br />Kindest, HeatherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-79247844800501907232021-01-18T17:19:57.449+13:002021-01-18T17:19:57.449+13:00^^^^ this!!!

I am so jealous of your tomatoes, my garden here is a fizzer, the climate is so different to what I'm used to. All I have left in the garden bed is some scrappy Thai basil, parsley and a zucchini plant that sprouted from the compost! Your tomato sauce sounds lovely. I have onion goggles too but I need my glasses to cook these days, wonder if Specsavers make prescription onion goggles?

Honestly it’s none of our business. With that said, I believe it will come in handy as an extra family vehicle. <br />Those tomatoes look lovely. Fresh grown tomatoes are my favorite garden veg/fruit. The sauce will be so tasty. We always can our extra tomatoes except last summer as no garden in our area did any good this year. Which sucks as I planted damn near 70 plants, so I’d have plenty to can sauce, diced tomatoes, and some juice. <br />Steve did a great job securing the place up. <br />Lacy.... congrats on getting you a google account.

If someone wants to give you a car good on them, don't get how anyone could have an issue with that and on top of that you are helping them out a lot in return. I once gave my nephew my old car because I couldn't be stuffed fixing a few little things and getting a roadworthy and then doing a private sale. I had my new car and just wanted the old one gone. So I totally understand Heather wanting to just be done with all those worries with the airport parking etc. Enjoy that gift I reckon it is just some good karma coming your way for all you do for your family and others :) I have a pair of goggles for cutting up too lol<br />Running GIRLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10427579184267614774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-45924141743515307112021-01-18T14:18:14.255+13:002021-01-18T14:18:14.255+13:00exactly 😊
