Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

I've had some help over the years, mostly in the encouragement to give it a go. I have some memorable moments, such as my father-in-law helping to fix a scotia that wasn't quite the right shape. He looks at me and says "I think I can fix that with my chainsaw", then proceeds to shape the wood using his chainsaw to fit perfectly in the slot, will less than a mm of tolerance.
