Yes, seniors were born to be wild
On Saturday, Steve returned to where he had parked in a seniors park at the Glenfield Shopping Centre and found an anonymous note on his motorbike. "It read: 'Hope you are a senior! If not, you shouldn't be parked here'. Yes, I'm 67 and I ride a motorbike. So what? Why would you think that the rider of the bike wasn't a senior? Who made you the parking police? Do you assume that as soon as they reach 64 years and 364 days that motorbike riders sell their bikes and never ride again? Yes, seniors do ride motorbikes. They also ski, skydive, surf, scuba and do so many other challenging and dangerous things."
Grind definitely on a high
When walking down High St, Lena was reminded there are a lot of good people in Auckland. "I saw a staff member from the cafe (Grind on High) giving a bag of pastries to a homeless guy, the shy old man with the long grey hair - you've probably seen him around looking through the bins for food. I was so happy they chose to give him their leftover pastries and I'll be swinging by for a coffee.
