Lisa and Aimz on holiday in December

It was great to have Lisa back from uni - and Aimz was on holiday too, although working. Lisa didn't waste much time before going out clubbing with her mates ;) hence the Mary Quant look.

Taken on a flying visit to Christchurch, in Cathedral Square.

Snapped on a visit to Wellington in December - near the library.

Night shot
