the girls had a day off school today for teacher training, but jane’s school was normal
poor esther had a concert band rehearsal 7.30-8.30am and a big band rehearsal 5.30-6.30pm so still had to go in to school. the boys school didn’t have a teacher training day
i had the day off – the idea being i would sleep in. but in the end i got up just a little bit later than normal, did various sortings, then had a two hour work phone call (i’d borrowed those two hours of my leave to have a snooze last Friday afternoon)
then i met up with my old university chum sam who had just flown in from blighty.
we drove over to Bethell’s beach and walked along to the cave, didn’t sea a seal, but did see a huhu bug crawling around in circles.
they taste like buttery chicken apparently
we then went over to the dunes before heading home for a quick drink before taking esther to her big band practice, grab some lunch, pick esther up, dropped sam off, dropped esther at home, picked up kezia for youth, dropped her off at youth then went to camera club and eventually came home again
i think i need another day off.
