Minding the Green Apple "Chapple"

We talked a bit over the last few months about searching for someone to stay in our GAC (more about that later). Our real estate contact came up with a couple who were about to start building and needed a roof for some months. Well, the day they came to look over the house, who should turn up, at exactly the same time, but Leonie and Geoff, Leonie is an ex workmate of mine from my Rangiora days and they heard on the bush telegraph that we were were going "cycle-about" again. They are about to start building in Whatamango Bay, just round the corner from Picton, and dropped in to see if we wanted someone to look after the GAC.

Val has somewhat of a track record for serendipitous happenings around her house transactions in Plimmeron, and obviously the shift over the water to Picton has in no way diluted this wondrous gift, the first couple decided it was not for them, so Leonie and Geoff will be living in our house until August while they manage the project of building their place.
