foggy morning (as shown in kezia’s photo below)
jane took esther to her tennis. esther gets better and better. still no winning games yet (mainly due to some accidental creative scoring from today’s opponent) but it won’t be long.
whilst jane was out, kezia and i constructed her chair for her room (the last big piece of her bedroom furniture). i notice on the camera she’d also taken some pictures out the window on a sunny day and of her new birthday present bed covers .
i then booked up flights (complicated as we were using combinations of airpoints and at one point kezia was flying on her own, but we’re now all booked on the same flights so that’s good). also booked our hire car and airport parking, so i think easter’s nearly all sorted.
we then all threw ourselves in the pool for a while before lunch, then we headed in to town to the Silo park to see the Phoenix Foundation. you may remember we went to see them this time last year, but it was cancelled due to the huge rains. storms were forecast but luckily it stayed dry
the support band were bannerman. they had a couple of excellent songs but then were a bit tepid. we did enjoy the chap with red trousers on in the picture above though. he was a crazy dancing man but his trousers kept slipping down, so every few minutes he had to stop and hoist them back up again. much hilarity for the rest of the crowd who were chilly out on the floor with their picnics.
phoenix foundation were good. usual shambolic live show. not their best ever but well worth the trip. and it was free
they were playing on a very small stage though
we came home and the girls had another swim
then this evening jane and i went to my colleague and his wife’s 40th ‘incognito’ birthday party
we both wore wigs. that’s sasha in the picture, not me. we stood outside for an hour and got munched alive by mozzies. but other than that a good time was had by all (well us at least)
