- Busy as a bee - as busy as a standard bank employee wearing takkies on payday

The green desert of uninvited but now needed pine trees spread out before me in tidy patchwork spaces in the far reaching hills of Howick; The smoke from distant farm fires defused the scene leaving a monotone haze.
The winter fresh breeze was intermittent as if it wasn't really sure if it should hurry up or stay put while secluded secret pockets of sunshine provided perfect sun bathing platforms for lazy lizards.
