Abigail
& David
At The Customs House, Auckland. We would love you to be there.
Schedule
All times localOptional, but the nicest way to arrive. Twelve minutes.
Outdoors, with a covered plan if the weather turns.
Seated, with a table plan on the door.
Last ferry back is 11:45. Taxis after that.
Eleven years, briefly
Met on a walking holiday neither of us wanted to be on.
A year in one room together, which turned out fine.
Bought the cottage, learned what a damp course is.
Engaged in the kitchen, mid-argument about shelves.
Attire
Cocktail, harbourside. It is windy on the pier and warmer inside than out, so layers work best. Wooden boards and gaps between them — stilettos will not enjoy the evening.
