Another weekend in paradise

Can I remember as far back as yesterday? Hmmmm. The usual shopping and chores.

Friday was the Total Fire Ban Day. Yes it got very warm, about 4pm it was 34C in Springwood but no fires broke out. Not sure if I'm disappointed about that or not!

Robbie had a cricket match yesterday afternoon. It was raining (and cold again) so I thought it'd be called off but it wasn't. He wasn't very happy when he got back. They'd lost again but only by about 5 runs. Ah well.

Ishbel was invited to play at Elki's for the afternoon. Once she got there we got a call asking if she could stay the night so I went over with her night gear later on. We then took advantage of not having a short person and took the boys to the pictures where we saw Burn After Reading which we enjoyed very much. Afterwards we went to find something to eat. We could only find a Hog's Breath Cafe open and we didn't enjoy it very much at all.

As you know, I tiptoed out of the house at the crack of nothing leaving the three boys snoring and went to RFS training. By the time I got back Ishbel was home and we got ready for visitors.

We were visited by Joanne and her friend, Janet, Adam (Janet's 8 year old son) and Chris (Joanne's 15 yr old). Janet comes up every Sunday to do Joanne's grocery shopping and we'd been talking for ages about her paying our new house a visit.

The chlorophyll babies are doing really well, especially the ones in the crates. The others in the flower bed are having to be protected from the snails, slugs and Bella - she has suddenly developed a penchant for digging. Not happy Bella!
