Per Natale abbiamo deciso di farci un regalo: licenziarci!!!
Il secondo regalo ha deciso di farcelo il nostro amico Matteo che verra’ a trovarci tra qualche giorno per viaggiare con noi in Nuova Zelanda.
Ebbene si’, dopo tre mesi era ora di rimetterci in movimento, abbiamo risparmiato il sufficiente per girare la terra di mezzo e per una tappa successiva, prima del rientro a casa, in ….. India!!!
Nelle ultime settimane abbiamo fatto i lavori piu’ svariati: dalle solite serate al ristorante, ai giardinieri, camerieri in un bar molto busy lungomare, creazione di un sitino web www.sheeperino.co.nz per ringraziare dell’infinita ospitalita’ i nostri amici, Paola e Francesco, che tentano di istruire i Kiwi al gusto di altri formaggi oltre al cheddar :-) e per finire due settimane di pioggia :-( e di raccolta mirtilli per una splendida famiglia neozelandese.
La raccolta dei mirtilli e’ stata sicuramente piu’ facile del flower picking, niente distinzioni sessuali tra le piante, bisognava solo prestare attenzione alle impercettibili sfumature di colore per cogliere i mirtilli in fase di maturazione. Ma dobbiamo ammettere che questa volta qualche miglia ce la siamo mangiata (un mirtillo un miglio, un mirtillo un miglio….gnam) :-)
E fiinalmente, dopo mesi, siamo riusciti a lavorare per una famiglia neozelandese (basta italiani, indiani, iraniani!!!) ed e’ stata un’esperienza splendida.
I Somerfield coltivano piccoli frutti (fragole, mirtilli, lamponi, more…) da generazioni, nonne, figli, nipotini. Avreste dovuto vedere in questi giorni, sotto Natale, la fila di macchine per venire a comprare la loro frutta! Loro, furbissimi, praticano il pick your own, ovvero la gente viene, si raccoglie le proprie fragole e poi paga!! Niente male come risparmio di manodopera.
Ogni giorno ci hanno istruito sulle diverse e numerosissime varieta’ di “berry”, ci hanno rimpinzato con omaggi di frutta e marmellate, ci hanno offerto te’, torte e sorrisi ad ogni buona occasione, ci hanno preparato un itinerario di viaggio per l’isola del sud e ci hanno gia’ invitato a cena per quando ripasseremo da queste parti. Noi, nel nostro piccolo, abbiamo contraccambiato con un pranzetto nei campi a base di pane fritto.
Raccogliere mirtilli non ci avra’ fatto diventare ricchi, ma lavorare per i Somerfield ha sicuramente arricchito la nostra esperienza di viaggio/lavoro in questa terra. Ci siamo salutati oggi con un abbraccio veramente commovente e le braccia cariche di ottima frutta per noi!
Ora siamo in partenza, prima tappa un ritorno ad Auckland da Niky e Julian, la nostra famiglia kiwi adottiva che ci aspetta per Natale. Possiamo ben immaginare tutti i manicaretti che ci perderemo in quel di Torino, ma ci consoleremo con un buon risotto Acquerello comprato in un negozietto da queste parti.
E’ strano un Natale senza neve, il sole splende, abbiamo rimesso il costume e tra un mirtillo e l’altro fatto il primo tuffo in questa parte di oceano…ed e’ dicembre :-)
A presto con i prossimi racconti di viaggio di nuovo on the road, buone feste a tutti, ricordatevi che vi vogliamo bene anche dall’altra parte del mondo!

…pensare che papà anni fa abbia “inventato” un packaging innovativo per commercializzare il riso che coltivava già suo padre… pensare che ora suo fratello con nostro cugino proseguano l’opera che da due generazioni ci siamo in qualche modo rimbalzati… pensarvi così lontani ma sapere che vi siete comprati un mezzo chilo di riso del nostro amato piemonte… questa cosa mi mette un pochino i brividi… a voi due no?! Figata davvero…!!! Un abbraccio e un augurio di buon Natale!!!
Ragazzi miei, Buon Natale! Un pensiero anche da Roma, dove mi preparo ad una maratona culinaria… non c’è scampo, ogni anno, ai chili presi in due giorni :-(

Ehilà, che farete di bello a capodanno? Qui forse si fiaccola, c’è un sacco di neve bellissima, che forse farete ancora in tempo a godervi un po’. E lì? Bagno di mezzanotte??? Di sicuro quando noi inizieremo a festeggiare voi sarete ancora a smaltire i postumi della prima/ultima sbornia dell’anno ;o))
Baciii,
Clau
P.s. Vogliamo vedere anche qualche commento e foto di Matteo adesso, nehhh??

Due to the bipartisan nature of committees, senators are occasionally able to find similarities across the aisle that are beyond their committee interest, which may aid them in getting bills passed in the future. Filibustered bills require a three-fifths majority to overcome the cloture vote (which usually means 60 votes). In practice, however, senators second requests for recorded votes as a matter of courtesy. Each party elects an assistant leader (whip), who works to ensure that his party’s senators vote as the party leadership desires. Like the vice president, the president pro tempore does not normally preside over the Senate, but typically delegates the responsibility of presiding to a majority-party senator who presides over the Senate, usually in blocks of one hour on a rotating basis. Instead, they have usually presided only on ceremonial occasions, such as swearing in new senators, joint sessions, or at times to announce the result of significant legislation or nomination, or when a tie vote on an important issue is anticipated.
Once the need for a delay has ended, a senator may request unanimous consent to rescind the quorum call. A senator may request a quorum call by “suggesting the absence of a quorum”; a clerk then calls the roll and notes which members are present. Under the rules and customs of the Senate, a quorum is always assumed as present unless a quorum call explicitly demonstrates otherwise. The Constitution provides that a majority of the Senate constitutes a quorum to do business. Holds can be overcome, but require time-consuming procedures such as filing cloture.

Manual flush is on the list of available features here, but on the other hand there is no VIP program and some terms and conditions concerning bonuses are not that friendly. Punters usually like this place as it offers a hefty introductory package to all new customers, along with bonuses for the first four bonuses, but on top of all this, there is a multitude of other incentives, including tournaments. Deposit bonuses will be added instantly. Wagering with both the bonus money and your deposited cash will count towards the wagering requirement. When accepting a deposit bonus, kindly remember that your deposit is locked with the accepted bonus. Regarding the bonuses and promotions, all times and dates are stated in CET/CEST.
