What a mess. Thinking of all those affected by this slip, especially our neighbours.

UPDATED: A Manapouri home is a risk, and access to the town's wharf is restricted, after a slip this afternoon (20 Oct). https://southlandapp.nz/NewsStory/manapouri-slip-closes-road-threatens-house/68f5df3abb64f4002ef81d50

Thanks to our very talented handyman we have updated our deck and replaced the railing. This makes it much safer & looks so much tidier.
