Ross’ Ramblings – Old Folk – Part 1
They say age is just a number which I guess is true until the number stops going up, but it’s also a number of other things

They say age is just a number which I guess is true until the number stops going up, but it’s also a number of other things

You glance out the window, greeted by a beautiful sunny day. With the dishes sorted and the whānau happily occupied, you decide to treat yourself to a well-deserved walk. As you grab your cell phone and headphones, the big question arises: Should you listen to music or a podcast? We’ve been there too …

Coromind is honoured to have Michael Smither (Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit) as our featured artist. When our team asked Michael to share some words with our readers, we were stoked with what we received.

Hey, I’m Emily Brickwood, a 17-year-old girl from Whangamatā. I play rugby and love to dance, but my favourite sport is skiing. I have been skiing since I could walk and come from a family where everyone loves skiing and we spend as many winter weekends as we can at the mountain. Some of my favourite things about skiing are: there is always a new challenge, the terrain is constantly changing, and being lucky enough to spend time with family or friends while doing something we all enjoy.

Boats come in many shapes and sizes and degrees of beauty. One of the ugliest and most ominous to my mind is the submarine.
