Elsewoman: March 2015
http://www.elsewoman.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Anne Else, writer. Wednesday, March 18, 2015. Seamus Heaney's "While all the others were away at mass" has been chosen as Ireland's best loved poem in a poll. From Clearances III - In Memoriam M.K.H., 1911-1984, it recalls a morning he shared with his mother, peeling potatoes. When all the others were away at Mass. I was all hers as we peeled potatoes. They broke the silence, let fall one by one. Like solder weeping off the soldering iron:. Cold comforts set between us, things to share. Links to this post.

Occasional postings of mountain writings, art (mainly printmaking), creative writing (mainly poetry), environmental musings and personal opinions and diary entries with mainly Aotearoa/New Zealand emphasis. PWMT - Pukawa Wildlife Management Trust. Recently Waikato University (Dr Kim King and Don Scurr) demonstrated how effective our efforts have been by comparing the activity of rats in our area compared with an unmanaged area. Very satisfying to all our group. See here. Donations to the PWMT may be made...

Elsewoman: After Anzac Day
http://www.elsewoman.com/2015/04/after-anzac-day.html
Anne Else, writer. Tuesday, April 28, 2015. While this was a place of courage and heroism and duty, it was also a place of fear and waste and loss . A place of unspeakable suffering on both sides of the fighting.". I didn't go to the parade through Wellington last Friday. To me it seemed too much like boys' obsessive war games - look, real uniforms and trucks! What in our lives is burnt. In the fire of this? The heart's dear granary? The much we shall miss? Three lives hath one life –. Iron, honey, gold.

Anne Else, writer. Wednesday, April 30, 2014. Roses from my builder. This is another post related to my bathroom, but in a tangential way. Larry, the builder working on it, has been sorting out our houses for a long time. He goes right back to the first house Harvey and I bought together, in Woburn Road, Northland, not far from Larry's own home. Links to this post. Monday, April 21, 2014. Going, going, gone.

Elsewoman: August 2015
http://www.elsewoman.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Anne Else, writer. Sunday, August 2, 2015. The winter of our discontent. The other thing getting in the way of posting is my general feeling of angry impotence in relation to what's going on in New Zealand. Just one example: last week the front page of the DomPost. Featured a photo of a young child's teeth savagely eroded by sugary drink. Carrick Graham (if you don't know who he is, read Dirty Politics. Why aren't they held responsible? Beaglehole replied, "I say to the parents please don't give your chi...

Elsewoman: Memories at the Met
http://www.elsewoman.com/2014/10/memories-at-met.html
Anne Else, writer. Friday, October 17, 2014. Memories at the Met. Today I got up the courage to tackle the Metropolitan Museum. The queue wasn't too bad, only about 10 minutes' wait (I knew better than to try checking my coat), and I had a somewhat limited but sensible plan: head straight for he Impressionists (the purple bits on the map).

Elsewoman: August 2014
http://www.elsewoman.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Anne Else, writer. Saturday, August 16, 2014. But of course, most of the time it isn't. This is from a fine New Yorker. Piece by Rebecca Mead, who wrote a splendid book about reading Middlemarch. You can find it at. Http:/ www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/pleasure-of-reading. Links to this post. Never too many books. I was very good. While I was channelling my inner librarian - floor-walking, answering questions ("Where is the chicklit? Tidying up the tables, and (my favourite thing) relocating...
