#Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A woman (70s?) approaches a friend while holding a potted rosemary plant with a big blue bow around the pot.
Grinning as she hands it over, saying: "Happy birthday darl!"
Her friend asks. "Rosemary?"
"For remembrance."
Her friend exclaims. "How could I ever forget YOU?!"
They share a big hug.It's the cafe lunchtime rush.
Every table is full.
A queue at the till.
People still approaching from down the street.
And a bustling server still finds the time to do a little ninja-move dance to make the barista laugh.
Grinning as he heads to the kitchen with arms overladen with dishes.A man (40s?) is sitting at a cafe table with a vintage Monopoly box (70s edition?) in front of him.
Opening the lid and carefully lifting out the money and playing pieces.
Holding the boot up with a faint, thoughtful smile. (4)A man (50s?) is approaching his garden gate when a huge fluffy cat darts out.
Meowing an enthusiastic hello.
Brushing first this way and that against his legs and asking to be picked up for a big snuggly hug.
Purring like a cuddly little tractor.A man (80s?) is talking to a woman (40s?) over a pot of tea.
He says in a booming voice: "Your mother was my sunshine. I'll never go a day without missing her. Lit up my life and still does. Pure sunshine."
He nods emphatically.(Continued Below)

Any typos spotted in this post have had a massive day and are rather enjoying the sound of their lovely partner bustling around the kitchen making them dinner. If typos spotted, they'll be eating all the pasta, with maybe extra cheese on top. It's been that kind of day.
