A space to share news and views from this cold, dark rainy island, the South Island of New Zealand. My name is Kim Newth - a freelance journalist, who is almost making a living out of it. Thanks for stopping by.

Snow in Canterbury Not sure if I’ll make it up to Auckland tomorrow for the 2011 BP Surf Rescue Media Awards. It was snowing all night and is still snowing this morning. Most of the flights out of Christchurch have been cancelled so far today. This photo is taken outside our house - it’s a view down Ayers St in Rangiora. The bright side is it’s great for the kids: what could be better for the school hols? They’ve been throwing a few snowballs and making snowmen. They came in frozen, but very pleased with themselves!
