This week's Lost & Found is from a trip I won (on Twitter!) to Cairns quite by accident, when I was living in Wellington in 2010. If I recall correctly, Air New Zealand was adding direct flights to Cairns for the first time, and asked people to tweet something about how they'd get there. I sent a slightly snide reply (along the lines of 'in a plane, duh!') without actually intending to enter, and somehow or other wound up winning!

Read MoreToday's Lost & Found was something that just happened one day on the lawn outside City Gallery, in Wellington's Civic Square - I found out later it wasn't an actual exhibition, someone just did it! I'm not sure it was ever made clear who was responsible...
Read MoreThis one from the Lost & Found collection is from a photography field trip with Craig Potton one morning, as part of the PSNZ National Conference in Wanganui, in 2009. I don't get up that early often, but I did enjoy it that time!
