It was last week on Friday, to leave home (I took my Cellphone myself to listen to my favourite radio station, The Rock FM) in order go to Welly to see the injured Bernard-Thomas at a hospital near the Government House & Basin Reserve, Me, Dad & Bernard's real Father, Uncle John Orr came as we went through towns such as Turakina, Bulls, Sanson & Foxton before stopping at a park in Levin before carrying on by seeing more towns such as Otaki (10 years since that famous stay at Byron's), Waikanae & Paraparaumu, but saw the Royal New Zealand Police College as well as Porirua & Johnsonville (Home of Pop's good ol' comrade Murray Gray & his Filipino born wife Viluz), but finally after 1 year & 10 months since my last visit, we finally saw the Capital City of New Zealand, Wellington AKA the Windy City (famously nicknamed after Chicago, Illinois, USA), also saw Westpac Stadium AKA Cake-Tin (Home of the 'Canes Super Rugby team), the Beehive (Parliment Building), John & Lim's apartment maybe & Courtneay Place possibly before settling at the Lodgers & saw Corinna who's poised to go home for work & move into a new residence but finally, I saw Bernard who I have not seen for 2 weeks, but had dinner there at the hospital's family room as well as watching television then next morning, I made my own brekkie (It was baked beans on toast + cereal & hot drinking chocolate) before seeing my step-brother again on how he is progressing well with his injuries he succumbed/sustained before having a rest, lunch (I had baked beans on toast yet again, with steak), reading newspaper, watching the rugby (The 'Canes won the match, beating the Rebels 66 - 24 as well as the big Hurricanes hooker Motu Matu'u smash 2 Rebels players) & having hot dog sausage sizzle for dinner, saw my step-brother, Bernard again before heading back & going to sleep, nek minnit (actually it's next morning), Had breakfast before seeing him 1 last time for the day, had soup for lunch before we said farewell to him (Hope 'ya get well, eh?), packed everything & headed back home sweet home all over again (Although, we did stop at Sanson for dinner cause I was feeling hungry that I already had a tomato soup for lunch).
Yesterday (The day after Corinna had her 1st stay at her new home which is located at Harrison Street), visited Corinna's new home & it looked fantastic, went into Warehouse to buy my stuff before heading over to Subway to get the chicken parmigiana sub & got that Kentucky Fried Chicken not for me before headed back to Corrina's for dinner, relaxed & watched TV before heading back to 43 Rimu Street (Which is Me & Dad's place) to end this spectacular 6 days it was.

The Weekend It Was: Getting Hurricaned
It was all over Saturday when the weekend already begun at 5:00pm on Friday when Hamilton Ngapo (my father) & my half-brother Jansen decided to go to New Zealand's capital city of Wellington to catch up on Corinna & her injured son Bernard-Thomas (at a hospital) who had just had an unfortunate bike accident so staying @ Nan & Pops is indeed the best idea for me since Dad got away.
For lunch, first it was soup on the menu (sweet potato & red lentil soup) we had until afternoon tea (russian squares & a bit of chai tea) & dinner (pasta) before watching rugby on the telly @ a bar (I had a juice while Pops had a cider before having chips for snacks) were the Highlanders got Hurricaned (Julian Savea, a potential All Black was the star power in that match, definitely scoring that match winner) & the final score was 26 - 20 to the Canes (although, the match was played over in Dunedin @ the new Forsyth Barr Stadium which replaced the good ol' House of Pain, Carisbrook), nek minute (actually next morning), having a good brekkie such as weet bix, croissants & another chai, read rules of the game including the fouls section which was thought to be hilarious by me, had late lunch by having moccachino, gluten free style caramel slice & a smoked chicken fritatta, few hours before Dad & Jans came back here for the sunday roast traditional dinner when I did draw a few racing car circuits, then headed back home to enjoy a wonderful, spectacular, weekend it was.

Act II: Sweet Memories Of Aunty Tania Manu Ngapo
It was last week, the fish, chips & salad were unhealthy (except salad) but rock solid, as well as our weekly swim at Splash Centre, bought new goggles, $20 as usual, but afternoon tea we had, unknown (as of today) before going home.
2 days later, the big day was in full force that Papa Henry Ngapo got his QSM accolades when my father, Hamilton attended along with Nana Helen, Aunty Tania & others such as Aunt Vera, Uncle Bryan Christie, Marnie Morgan & Murray Gray (Whose wife Viluz, is Filippino born) who is a long-time friend/comrade of Pops before he famously met the master of Rugby coaching, All Blacks Rugby World Cup 2011 Champion, Sir Graham 'Ted' Henry & His Excellency, the Governor-General of New Zealand, Lt Gen The Rt Hon Sir Jerry Mateparae (Who is Wanganui born).
Then on Sunday, Rutland Arms was indeed the perfect time to have brekkie but the French Toast is believed to be my all-time favourite breakfast dish to have, then a few hours later, we arrived at the aeroport & just said au revoir to Aunty Tan at last, seeing that I would never see her again in a few years, but nek minnit (actually a day later), after our Aunt's famous departure to our homeland of NZ, something had just happened, Bernard-Thomas was riding his fixed dirt bike until the bike plunged into the body of Bernard and ripped the skin wide open so I don't really know that someone had to call for help & dialed 111 for Ambulance so Bernard's ended up at hospital in a critical/stable condition.
Today's story was a bit of an unforgiving week it was from triumph & good will (Pop's QSM Award that he got to remember now) to the horrifying truth (Bernard's disastrous & scary dirt biking accident).
P.S. Hope Bernard-Thomas Condon-Orr gets well from a horrendous accident that he had last night, but...

Rules Of The Game Of Thrones
It was Sunday, the day of Aunty Tania Manu Ngapo's arrival in NZ from Canada, the reality is what I would do before she gets here, that is the question, but once when she arrived, I discovered that Stellar was indeed the best option to go for lunch to meet them, as it happens once they had lunch, the food that I had was really awesome such as the chicken burger & chips but my half-brothers pizza that he had was OK, as well as my step-brother having the same as my half-brother, but the pizza that he had lacked imagination because it was indeed fighting like a rock! But I always vowed loyalty and respect to desserts also such as the chocolate torte, then nek minnit after Stellar headed straight home and watched the V8 car race, played video gaming, having casserole for dinner and went to sleep for an incredible day of arrival for Aunty Tania.
P.S. We talked about the new aliases for Aunty Tania's partner Réjean and his son Eric today, Réjean is known as Giuseppe Pedersen and of course Eric AKA Giuliano Richtsteiner.
