here’s a gumboot/welly in some leaves. the seasons are a bit weird here. it’s like a gradual autumn and there even a few trees and bushes which are in flower. that’s totally confusing.
work for me was good and we popped out to the Thai restaurant next to my office for lunch. i’ve probably mentioned it before. it’s called Joy Bong which sounds like something completely different but it’s jolly good and we’ll miss it when we move to our new office building later in the year
jane had the ladies group at our house this morning which is expanding in size and popularity which is good. our house is obviously not too cold for them. and the children enjoyed the various houses and busesi brought back from the church office for them last night which is good.
then jane went to school and all was well again so that’s good. the kids have an end of term french breakfast sometime next week, and will also be watching french DVDs so i think next week might be a bit of a wind down in time for the end of Term 2 break.
email or skype her if you want to know the full skinny
the girls had swimming this evening and esther didn’t seem as exhausted as usual. in fact she was quite pleased as there’s a new person in her class who was much slower than her ! It’s not about not being slow, it’s about not being slowest it seems.
we’re all aiming to be in bed by 9pm in the evening as we’re getting up at 4.30am to head in to town to see the new year dawning. we’ll tell you about that tomorrow ! (nice to end on a cliff hanger – unless you a short bungee jumper on a long rope or something)
