oops I missed the Saturday as promised.

We did happen to go to the coffee shop, both on Saturday morning and Sunday Morning.

Warren is now at home up the coast, we had a great time whist he was here.
Lots of going out to eat. There is a great deal on at the moment with the cinema where 2 people can go out for a meal for R70 and it includes your cinema ticket (R35 each for meal & ticket - about £3!).

Has a busy weekend, but managed to relax and go to the gym and do my cooking for the week & mike got a surf on Sunday Morning. Mike is off to Jo'burg tomorrow, which I am really jealous about because he is going to stay with Sean & Lynda and the kiddies. But will get to see them over Christmas hopefully.

Looking forward to a sunny week (after a wintery spell last week).

Thank you to All

Sorry for the late response, thank-you to all for my birthday money which I have put towards my Sony Reader, I was supposed to wait until after christmas to buy it, but Mike surprised me with it last week when Warren arrived from the UK with it.

I have read one book already, and I am on to my second and enjoying it so very much. It is the best present ever.

I decided at the weekend, I should post more regularly, so I will get up every Saturday early and take my computer to the Greek coffee shop that has free internet and blog. Especially as it is getting into summer and there is always so much that we do. (May have to re-arrange this schedule if Mike surfs).

Had a busy week sofar as Warren has been down, but if I say it all now I will not have anything to say on Saturday.

Lovely end to a busy week


Ed was away last night and Nya stayed the night and slept in Opa's bed. (took the photo with my phone). Slept all night till 7.30. She woke up said 'Hullo Oma', got out of bed, got a book then cuddled up to me for a story.
Then we went downstairs for tea and a koekje before breakfast and bath. It was a glorious day so we played in the garden then we both 'worked' for a bit in the office. At about 11.30 Traer and Avie arrived and we took Nya swimming. Or rather Traer went into the pool with Nya while I looked after Avie. Afterwards had a bite to eat in the cafe at the Stour Centre before heading home.
Terry joined us all for supper. I was able to take my first photo's of Avie with her eyes open. So have included some below.

Land uncleared

I was supposed to put these up 4 weeks ago - but I forgot - sorry.

Mike and I got a letter to say we need to clear our plot of land, so we tied it in with a trip for work. (We did not clear it though, probably one too many snakes for me).

Here are the pics before:
Our plot is in front of the white house at the back, to the road at the front.

Land is to the right, looking down towards the beach road:
Land opposite our plot:

Looking back to the plot from the beach road (Plot on the left, just past the house).

The Beach:
We are heading up to Wilderness next weekend, so will take some pics of the land all cleared. We are off on a little surf road trip. Harri & Matt are staying at U.Petes & A.Mims, and we have rented a place in the village for us, Shaun, Stephen, Paul & Bianca. We are all taking Friday off and then will head back on Sunday.
