The Light 'N Funny Blog

My first article was June, 2009 (can be seen here). There was no introductory article, just straight into a joke. The blog has retained its ethos of no commercialism allowed. There are no advertisements and when people use comments to promote business, they are deleted.

Statistics were added by owner Google in July, 2010 which have been useful. Using that data the top nations for visitors can be seem from the above date to the end of November, 2015.

	USA	47.9%
	New Zealand	6.2%
	UK	5.6%
	Canada	4.7%
	Australia	3.8%
	Russia	2.6%
	Germany	2.3%
	Others	26.9%

Overwhelmingly this blog is appreciated by people in the U.S. As jokes can be 'language dependent' to be understood, the fact that English speaking nations are the top five is not surprising.

I hope you enjoy future additions to the site. Thanks for coming and from a computer desk somewhere in New Zealand, enjoy.

Manukau Heads - Waitakere Ranges Auckland

Just to the west of Auckland is a range of hills, the Waitakere Ranges. Walk west along the Manukau Harbour along a ridge dropping to the water and you get spectacular views. Then you reach the Tasman Sea and the steep walk down and the whole area is wild and beautiful.

In my youth we came as a family to the area in vacation times. The pictures taken some time ago don't do it justice but they give you an idea.

Africa Is Unique

Sometimes you're the bricklayer,
 another time the trestle

This could take a while

When you cannot afford a car...

....you take wheelbarrow
