The hot days continue ...

Still very hot here, the countryside is tinder dry and the gardens are drooping rapidly. Dh and I went over to the bay to spend a night with DD#2 and grandchildren. We took Holly with us. She didn't like the hilly journey and was sick twice and then did a wee (in the car).......Charming !!! The children were pleased to see us and we had some fun in the sea. The building project has gone well but SIL and his father look absolutely exhausted, they have worked long days out in the sun. DSIL goes back to work on Monday... The house is nearly finished (they've rebuilt the holiday home while staying in it ...) DD has been able to take the children down to the beach but they have missed the company of their father. I think they are coming here today, DSIL returns to Auckland on the "red eye" on Monday, and DD and the children have another week. Not much of a family holiday for them really..

Off to the shops to fill the fridge and freezer... It never fails to amaze me how much food a family gets through in a week !

All the best to Jane for the surgery.

Marion.
