The sign says it all


Hi All,

I started early this morning anxious to understand all the intracies of the market requirements for Saturday, Simon slept and snored on.... Ann imparted last minute instructions and wisdom then left about 1130 for the Spirit and a week in Victoria. We have a page of jobs, which I think we will manage with no worries, the trick will be deciding the correct day for specific tasks weather dependent.

My day started making up gift boxes for the market, tommorrow I have some packing to do.

The afternoon was spent weeding the top rhubarb patch while Simon spent the day moving sods (for a raised turn around for the mower "Derick") and snippering edges. About 5pm we went to pick up mail (none) and newspapers for mulching (also none). We then went for a drive to Cygnet along the channel this time.

Some quaint places for sale in Gordon, Verona Sands and Charlotte Cove, as is my habit I look up the for sales on the net, although I have been cautioned by Simon for using too much of our monthly allowance.

A post card arrived yesterday from Peach who worked with us at PBR, with an offer to visit her in Hong Kong. Thanks Peach and take care, we can't commit to the trip just yet, but we will keep in touch! We also received a message that Morphine and Fanfan caught the Spirit yesterday and are off to welcome in the New Year at Sydney Harbour. We have no plans as yet about Christmas or New Year, although we have been approached to house sit....

Today we had some weather, I know Simon keeps a running commentary, there was some sun and I have burnt calfs from weeding, not sure if there was rain, there are always clouds.

After our look around Cygnet we headed home and Simon cooked tea, a treat! Thanks :-) - it more than made up for my hankering for some hot chips, I was sure we would find a chip shop in Cygnet... alas no.... ahh well chicken and veg was much healthier.

Cheers

Susan
