Story 118 The Waitakere Park



Hi, it is Mootie here.
            For me, one of the highlights of my trip to New Zealand was seeing the park where Joseph worked. The girls had seen a bit of it when we took a drive through but when Joseph wanted to show me more they all decided to stay at the house. So in the end, only Joseph and I went. 
            We first drove up to the Part Centre where they have both a very good public display and also the park headquarters. Also outside there were some spectacular viewing decks where people could enjoy views of the surrounding forest, a large water supply lake and the distance harbour.
            We went from the public areas through into the headquarters where I was able to meet some of the people Joseph is working with including Kevin, the Head Ranger. We had a long talk with him and he was telling about the park. Also, I was showing photos of the park where Joseph worked and I am now the Head Gamekeeper. 
            Then suddenly the Head Ranger said, “Here give me five minutes and I will take you for a tour if you like.”
           I looked at Joseph a bit worried that someone else had taken over his tour but he nodded yes and told me I will see a lot more this way.

            We travelled along a major public road which ran through the park. They call this the Scenic Drive, apparently built during the 1930s depression to give men work. This is one thing which was so different about this park; it was so open to the public. I explained how different it was to my park in India because we tightly controlled all access to the park. Kevin said that here the policy was open and free entry and access. He also said it would be impossible to stop access since a number of public roads passed through the park area.
            We visited a very large Kauri tree which is believed to be eight hundred years old. We saw some waterfalls and wild surf beaches. I learnt a lot about managing park land differently. I have some ideas to take back with me. I also took a lot of photos too so I could show Joseph’s friends at the game reserve where he was working now.
            Over lunch, at a café with a spectacular view of Auckland City, we got into an interesting discussion on the animal food chain in a place where there were no animals. This was interesting to see how nature worked things in such a very different eco-system. This is probably what I was so amazed about New Zealand. There are no larger native animals and no snakes both of which play an important role in the eco-system of my park.
            So after lunch, we returned to the Park Centre and then Joseph and I returned to Shanti’s house. We found many of them were out on a tour of their own which of course is being told with in another story by Katrina I think.
           I had a good day. Thanks Joseph for my tour.

                                                                Posted by Allan.
        Due to a major rebuild of this section of our story-line, this has become the last story of Volume 8. It is not sexy, was never meant to be. The only purpose is to build on the two men Mootie and Joseph.
        As you may remember Joseph when we first met him worked for a Game Reserve in India. As the stories progressed he became the Head Gamekeeper. See those very early letters – Letter 2 and Letter 14. Of course in the first few stories of Volume 5, we learn that Joseph and Lizamoa have moved to New Zealand and he has taken up a job at the Waitakere Regional Park.
       Mootie, whom we first met in Letter 14 but came to know better in Letter/Story 63 and Letter/Story 66, began working for Joseph and worked his way up to take over as Head Gamekeeper when Joseph left.
       We thought it might be interesting to let Joseph show Mootie around his new park. That is the reason for this story. The real head ranger is not a man called Kevin. This has been changed to protect the privacy of the real men who have held this position. The name Kevin came from an ex-boyfriend of Susan. 

      This post led to a major redevelopment of the Letters Web Site. Here Allan gave some background information about the two men Joseph and Mootie. Anne liked this so much that we began a special page listing all the characters of the Letters Stories and with some background about each. This page was intended to be updated as more stories were written.

Story 117 Special Places.


Hi, Katrina here again.
            You all know how much I like that very special story which Mike wrote many years ago about how he and Shanti went out together and began their special relationship. I know that one without even looking it up. It is in Vol 3, Letter 43  Shanti was Painfully Shy. See how clever I am to know that.     
            We had just come back from Warkworth via the Nudie Night at the hot pools and next morning we were sitting on the deck. Shanti asked us what we wanted to do for the afternoon. Mootie was with Joseph up in the forest park looking at birds or bugs or something. We were planning to go out for the evening and so we had some time to kill.
            “Let’s read something from the Letters Book?” suggested Amita.
            “OK,” agreed Shanti. “Which one do you want?”
            “You can choose Katrina,” Amita said.
            “You know which one I would like Amita. But I would like Mike or Shanti to read it this time.”
            “Which story is that,” Mike asked.
            I think he might have known but wanted me asking.
            “The one where you first met Shanti,” I told him.
            “Yeah I can do that,” said Mike “But what about something even better.”
            “What story could be better,” I asked him thinking he was meaning another story.
            “What about visiting the places where that story took place?” said Mike.
            “Can we really do that?”
            With that idea I was excited. It would be nice to see the locations of that story.
            “Of course, it would only take an hour or so. We could also see the place where I grew up as well. You can even see my old house.”
            “And see my old house in Waitakere too.” added Shanti.

       This is one of those stories designed to provide a link back to our earlier stories. In this case, we are looking at the places where Story 43 – Shanti was Painfully Shy, took place. The places in this story were sort of based on real places so one day when we all went to visit Allan’s father we decided to show the younger girls where this was.
       The first stop was our old High School. We visited during the week and actually did meet one of our old teachers. He remembered the four of us too. It was fun catching up with him and telling him what we were doing now. He explained that the place where the flagpole was had been removed years before and a new build stood there. This was a disappointment for us and gave us the idea to put this disappointment into the story. In our story we wanted Katrina to sit in the place where Shanti had sat so we said the pole was about to be pulled down.
        Next was a large pine forest in Waitakere. Yes, we already knew this had been milled years before but still we could show the girls roughly where the place was we used in the story. As for the location of the two houses. Shanti’s house was completely made up so we placed it near the village of Waitakere. Mike’s house is based on where Allan grew up and his Dad still lives. For privacy reasons we have not given an exact location of this house although I think anyone familiar with the area would be able to pinpoint the place fairly closely.

Story 116 Nude at the Hot Pools.



         Hi, Katrina here. It looks like I am doing the last story of the Warkworth Trip. I am happy because this is one of the best stories to be telling about me too. 

Day Three.
            Well, this was our last day camping. When I woke I discovered Mike was still with me. He had decided to be with me all night and I was able to sleep with him holding to me. I like when a man does that. One day I will have my own man who will do it every day. Maybe David will be the chosen one. I waiting to see if he writes to me when I get home. 
          We got up as early as we could although I must admit a few of us people had a job getting out of bed. Once breakfast was over everyone except for Hansini and I was busy loading the vehicles. We kept the kids happy and out of the way by going for a walk down by the stream. Kathy managed to fall in the water but lucky Shanti had a change of clothes ready for her.
            Our first stop was the Farmer’s Market at Matakana. This is held every Saturday morning and various people in the surrounding area bring their produce to be sold. It is a great place to buy good quality vegetables, meat and baking. That muscle fritter I had was so very nice for me 
      But we couldn’t stay too long because Mike had booked us into the farm show where we saw the various farming things. I found this a very interesting part of our trip. Here we were able to witness how smart the sheep dogs were in being able to herd the sheep across a little bridge and into some very small pens.
            We also saw the cow milking and the sheep sharing too. They were so quick to take all the wools off so neatly as well.
            We then left the Warkworth area and headed for the place where there were hot pools. This was a journey which took nearly an hour to get there. It was after three after lunch by the time we were into Helensville. We looked around this town and had afternoon tea at a café and then we went on to the place of Parakai where these hot pools were located.

Hi from Kim.
         This story is going to be the last in the Warkworth series. It was decided that the group would go to the hot pools so that was where I was headed with this story.
        When you are writing for a blog like this most often the stories need to be made-up just loosely based on real events but just sometimes it is different. This story could be closely based on two trips that actually happened to me. First, we took a trip to visit the Matakana Farmers Market. On the way home again we visited the Warkworth Farm Show since Ayaka’s parents were with us. It’s a good show and we all enjoyed it. The Farmers Market and the Farm Show both fitted well here since it might just be something Mike and Shanti could show their visitors from India. 

        Now the next part of my story concerns a Nudie Night at the hot pools. It was Katrina’s first time and so it was easy for me to base my story on my first time going nude in public like that. Some parts were made-up but the three main events were almost as they happened for me. First I wore a very sexy swim-suit and a girl did stop me to ask about it. While she did her partner was checking me out too. The second part was where I joined Anne, Ayaka, Susan and Shandra to strip off my swim-suit beside the pools rather than returning to the changing room. Wow, that was so daring and so sexy for me. Finally, the couple who talked with me did come back later and tried to pick me up. It was obvious they wanted a three-some night with me but of course, I wasn’t going there with that one.  

       So as can be seen, this story kind of wrote itself. I just needed to change names and adapt things to fit so it became Katrina’s story.

Story 115 Katrina’s Treat.


Hi, Mike here.
           While the fun sex party was going on down at the stream there was also some of us having fun up at the camp too. Let me explain what happened to me that night. This story is probably not as sexy as many through this part of the Letters Series but I believe it is rather special, the sharing of a special time between two friends.
          We were sitting around the fire talking and enjoying a few beers. The beer wasn’t that cold since the ice had melted in the chilli-bin but still, they were good enough. A while before Peter and Sarvesh had left to go down to the stream and see what was happening with Steve. They never returned and since there were now four girls missing we knew something was going on.

Story 115 Background



                                                                Posted by Ayaka.
Hi, it’s Ayaka!
        I wanted to investigate the relationship between Mike and Katrina. It has already been written in Shandra’s stories that a special bond had developed between them. I wanted to develop this more fully.
        I asked and was given this place to work with but my problem was it was already written that Katrina was tired and sore from what had been a big day for her. We could have changed those stories for me, they did offer, but I got the feeling other writers wanted it to stay. Anne said to just see if an idea came to me.
       I talked to some of them but it looked like it would be impossible then I went out with my boyfriend one evening. What happened between us that night gave me the correct plan for my story. You must be seeing that I was having my monthly time and not able to do the sex. I know he was wanting too so I did him a very nice blowjob. He was very happy with me and I was pleased I had done so. When I was at home in my bed that night I suddenly knew here was the answer for Mike and Katrina too.
       Next morning a began my writing of this story. The story was developing but not in a way I was happy with. It was then that I was sitting on the deck trying to writing. Allan was nearby, relaxing and half sleeping. I asked for his advice. He helped with the story and especially the opening conversation.    

       Now Reshma was doing another story of events that happened at the same time. We worked together one afternoon changing our stories so they fit together. I was almost finished mine when she began writing her one. We both fit them together well, starting from the group sitting beside the fire drinking warm beer. She copied our conversation section about that as the beginning of her story too.  (Actually, you will have seen her story last week.)

Story 114 The European Girls.



          Well, Steve, you weren’t the only ones to get into some hot sex that night. Four of us had an interesting time up at the camp too. This story and the one told by Mike, that is following next week, took place at the same time as the seven person orgy down by the stream. (The Story 113   My Night with Hansini and Amita, last week.) 

Hi, it is Joseph here.
        Let me tell you what happened. It had been a good day. We’d all had a lot of fun, now in the evening, three of us men were sitting around the fire with a few beers. The beer was warm, but that was OK. It was nice, just sitting there, relaxing, talking, enjoying time together. After all that had been happening through this part of our New Zealand holiday I would have been happy spending the remainder of the evening just like that.
         Peter and Sarvesh had just left us, deciding to go down and see what was happening with Steve. Four girls were down there already so we knew something was going on. After they had been gone a while and it became obvious they weren’t coming back.
        “It looks like Peter and Sarvesh might have hit it lucky,” Mike said. “They haven’t come back yet.”
        “Yes,” agreed Mootie. “I am thinking we will not see them for a while.”
        “Want another one Mike?” I asked him as I opened the chilli-bin beside me.
        “Sure,” he replied.
        Then I heard Jenny’s voice behind me, “And one for us too, Joseph.”
        I looked around to see Jenny and Sharon coming towards us. “Sure,” I replied.
        The girls came and sat down by the fire. I handed Mike his beer and then gave the girls one each too.
        “Not very cold,” said Sharon.
        “No, sorry,” I replied. “The ice has melted.”
        “So what are you guys up to?” Jenny asked.
        “Nothing much. Just talking.”
        “Well I feel like some fun,” Jenny said with a rather naughty smile. “I feel like some horny fun.”
        “Go down the stream,” I said. “You might find a full-on orgy.”
        “No, I am looking for some one-on-one fun.”
        “So what have you in mind?” I asked.
        “Maybe some hard cock. Hard Indian cock,” she replied.
        I sort of knew where she was going with this, it was so obvious, but I still asked, “Do you have anyone in mind, Jenny?”
        “Yes, Joseph! You and me!”
        “And you with me Mootie,” Sharon added.

Story 114 Background.


                                                                Posted by Reshma.

          After I finished that joint story with Rajah, Story 99 in Volume 7, Rajah went on to do a story himself. It was Story 112 The Second Rabbit Hunting story. I was talking to my sister Shandra and she suggested that I try writing one myself too.
        ‘Ok,’ I thought. ‘Why not? I’ll try one myself.’
        A week later we were at the writer's meetings discussing this part of Volume 8. They wanted to build it up a bit more. Susan and Allan had already completed Story 113 My Night with Hansini and Amita about the seven-way orgy down by the river. The question was asked, ‘While all that was going on, what was happening back in camp?’ The original intention had been not to do anything here but now we realised there was a chance for one or two extra stories.
        Ayaka wanted to try something with Mike and Katrina. I was unsure what, as in the stories before this they had just written that Katrina was tired and sore, well and truly fucked actually. When Ayaka said she had an idea, Anne allowed her to run with it. Then Shandra suggested me. There were four people left, two Indian men and two European women. Anne invited me to see what I could do with them. I wasn't sure what but it was obviously going to be some kind of foursome.   

         When we wrote Story 99 my sister and I had swapped husbands for the night. See Story 99  Part B Background. That was still on my mind and I still thought it was rather sexy. When I talked about it with my husband he had suggested that it might have been fun if we had done it together so he could watch me and I could watch him. I knew what he meant, one of his favourite stories was Ayaka and Kim’s Story 92 Four by Four-some. So finally a plan was beginning to take shape in my mind.      
         By then Ayaka was well into her story with Mike and Katrina. Before I started mine, I asked her how she was beginning her story. We sat down together one afternoon and she allowed me to read what she had done. She began with the three men sitting by the fire drinking beer and talking. We both knew this was where my story should begin too. I copied that from her story, making a few changes to fit with mine and that became my beginning.
        Ayaka was writing her stories from a man’s point of view and when we got together to make sure our stories fitted together she suggested I try doing the same too. Now that was something different to try, writing from a guy's point of view, so I decided to try. I had to get feedback from my husband a couple of times but I think, in the end ‘Joseph’ tells a good story here. Ha! Ha!
        Here is the final result.
