Checking some of my chocolate haul of New Zealand's finest from Whittaker's before we head for home. #CravingChocolate #TeeTravels

Against a sky of the palest blue peppered with cotton clouds and a warm afternoon sun - a walk through the winding pathways and serenity of the Te Auaunga Oakley Creek beckons. #TeeTravels

The grave hunter and her apprentice in training. Having inherited a love of the unquiet gardens of the dead from my maternal grandmother as a little human - 'tis only right to now share some of that love with my granddaughter. 🪦 The Parish of St Stephen. Parnell. New Zealand. #StillSleuthing 🔍

Back among the unquiet dead of Auckland. Saturday morrow. The view from my world. 🪦 The Parish of St Stephen. Parnell. Auckland. New Zealand. #StillSleuthing 🔍 @deadsleuth.com @graveyardsquirrel.com

Walking in Saturday like... Standing at 5.6m high and fabricated in cast aluminium, 'Boy Walking' by New Zealand mixed media artist Ronnie van Hout awaits the visitor to Potters Park in the Mount Eden area of Auckland. #TeeTravels

A monument rich in symbolism tells of a husband's love for his wife Martha who died in the autumn of 1917 and of his daughter Christina Mary who entered into rest in 1876. Robert Miller would be reunited with his family in 1931. 🪦 Symonds Street Cemetery. Auckland. New Zealand. #StillSleuthing 🔍

I promised the groaning bookshelves in my den that I would not add to their woes upon my return home... However much to the delight of my inner bibliophile, I happened upon the book emporium as I was exploring the delightful university campus. #TeeReads 📚

No matter how far I may yet wander, there is always time for another graveyard wander. 🪦 Symonds Street Cemetery. Auckland. New Zealand. #StillSleuthing 🔍 @deadsleuth.com @graveyardsquirrel.com

And on the subject of books, and to the delight of this bibliophile, I have made the happy acquaintance of the Waterfront Container Library Book Exchange here in Auckland City. And, if you are a'wondering - I departed empty handed! #TeeTravels

Far, far away from the torrid echo chamber of British politics -the view from my perch in Auckland as I tuck into another chapter from the memoir of @nicolasturgeon.bsky.social As a born and bred Yorkshire lass with a somewhat conflicted perception of the author - this is frankly a very good book.

As I had the pleasure of listening to author @tinamakereti.bsky.social during @yorkfestofideas.bsky.social - 'tis only right that my signed copy of her latest novel with its compelling tale from a coastal New Zealand town has followed me as I journeyed to the other side of the world. #TeeReads

Kia ora! 'Tis to the other side of the globe I have journeyed as the City of Auckland has beckoned once more. And it is so good to be back. #TeeTravels

I make a welcome return to the seaside within the pages of the AUGUST publication of THE DALESMAN MAGAZINE as I muse upon my love of the picturesque fishing village of Staithes, the legacy of the Victorian photographic pioneer Francis Frith and sleuthing those coastal ancestors. #StillSleuthing 🔍

As today is the fourth day of June, it must be NATIONAL HUG A CAT DAY! And with my feline proving a tad camera shy this morning - I will have to be content with his 12th scale doppelgänger. #LittleBigCat #CatHug

Tee loves nothing more than shocking unsuspecting folk with the tale that she was abandoned at birth by gypsies and raised by a family of kindly mice in the crypt of an old church. Alas! The truth is altogether more unremarkable. Between Worlds at teebylo.com
