As I have said many times: when it comes to a significant number in this blog’s story numbering I like to deviate from story-telling a wee bit and chat about other things.
Today’s story number is significant because it’s the password I use to get into my bank account. I also use it as the password for my computer and WordPress and social media and everything else. These days it’s almost impossible to remember heaps of passwords so I stick to 2118 for everything. Also for the pin number for my phone.
To celebrate this number I thought I would simple show some photos of my environment around the house. It is very hilly, so I wandered around the outside of the house this past week and took photos willy-nilly. That way you can see where I live. Incidentally the code to turn off the house alarm is also 2118. Also to unlock the keypad on the door. As I said, I use the number for everything.
The number 2118 was the number of our car’s registration plate when I was a kid. It’s actually just the first four numbers of the plate because in those days there were six numbers: 2118-46.
Anyway, here are pictures taken from the paths around the house:
Fields of rape (I always think it’s an unfortunate name for this turnip-like crop).
Looking towards the East.
The water tank on the highest hill.
Making hay.
Devon cattle - one of the oldest breeds of cattle in the world.
The water tank is next to the distant pines.
The old disused woolshed when sheep roamed the farm (now cattle)
Some of the neighbour’s sheep and water tank.
Volcano Mount Taranaki from the gate.
Don’t you just hate it when neighbours crowd you out? Almost 2118 legs to pull.
