today’s been a very domestic day. jane and esther took kezia to her swimming lesson early this morning (esther was not rostered on for a tennis match this morning), and then did a bit of shopping.
meanwhile i got on top of paperwork including sorting our US transit visa for our trip to the UK (now less than 4 weeks until we touch down in blighty)
unfortunately we found quite a leak in the pool shed which was related to stuff the pool cleaning people had done. so esther and i went to the shop. And all credit to them they sent someone out within the hour to mend it, and replace some other bits at their expense. so we’re now leak free. hoorah.
(except the heat exchanger thing which has rusted away which interfaces our under floor heating with the pool, but we don’t use that)
once the mending man had gone jane and esther went in the pool (picture above)
we also turned down the chlorine making button. just in case you are keeping notes.
esther and i also took jane’s old computer to a special e-waste facility which visited our part of auckland every few months. it was the ideal opportunity to get rid of the case of jane’s old computer for free (it costs money to take things to the tip). and it was so easy. you just drove up, then they opened the boot and took the bits out and that was that. excellent.
kezia spent the afternoon at a friends house and this evening biffy and malcolm came round for a slap up roast dinner and a game of cards (which i won – hoorah!)
