Well… today did not go as planned! My niece Emma and her boyfriend Alisdair were travelling to Tasmania today to stay a week. A 4.30am start for them (and my sister) only to have the airline encounter some kind of staffing blunder which resulted in a FIVE HOUR delay!!
Clearly, they were not going to make it down here in time to catch the bus.
So I finished what house work I could in rather a rush and drove up to pick them up (4 hour round trip!!)
Luckily my lifestyle is mega flexible, so it was really no worries and lovely to be in the car for a couple of hours with the kids catching up and chatting.
While I finished preparing their rooms and making dinner, I sent them both into the raspberry patch to do the picking for me. Despite a LOT of raspberries eaten as they picked, they still managed to bring back 2.5kgs (5.5lb) to the house! Impressive!
Hopefully tomorrow its off to visit Ruby for a cuppa then we will choose a beach!!
Bedtime for me… feeling a bit weary now!
Cheers!
Oh how I miss fresh garden salads. Yours looks delicious, enjoy.
Thanks Janet! I didn’t realise how much I missed them until we started having them on the plate again!
