Friends and sunshine

Sunday 4th February 2024


My cruise companion arrived today. She's been back in South Africa from England longer than I have so it was nice to catch up. Angie and I have known each other since my TV days when I started at age 19. That's quite a while now!



She's been doing Caring in England since 2020 and has decided to settle in the Cape for longer this time. The weather was a typical Highveld day, warm in the morning, a quick heavy thunderstorm mid afternoon and returning to sunshine. So I made a yummy chicken salad with some pumpkin fritters. A strange combination, I know, but turned out yummy.


Avi, the bulldog wasn't budging down the stairs to do her business today. Had to coax her with a bit of biltong twice. Hopefully tomorrow she feels better and is keen to ruin the lawn. Hopefully tomorrow I feel less tired too, yawn!
