The weekend started with a bang! We finished work at lunch time and all headed for the canteen which had been converted to a fan park. The World Cup opening ceremony was on at 2pm so we all watched as South Africa showed the world what we’re made of. It was rather impressive, and I …
Sunday was yet again spent showing Nick how to catch fish in the ‘berg; Nick had joined the NFFC during the week and was eager to test out some of his new waters. We opted to fish a venue in the Kamberg area called Uitzicht. This venue offered 2 dams – a larger one which …
On Sunday morning we headed down to Durban for the ECR Big Walk. The plan was to park at the finish and then catch a bus back to the start; It seemed like a good idea until we arrived and realised their planning was possibly not what it should’ve been. The parking lot had a …
Saturday was a rather exciting day for me as I stepped onto a squash court for the first time in over 6 months. I was a little worried about my Achilles even though I’d experienced no pain over the past few months. Thankfully I quickly forgot about it (well mostly) as I played Sharon for …

After a very relaxing 2 week cruise my old man was kind enough to stop off in Durban and spend the Easter weekend with us. Thursday night was very relaxed. My dad had arrived in the morning, and spent the day at my house washing his 2 shirts which he had worn for the last …

My phone rang, and when I answered it, I was greeted with perhaps the most excited Sharon I’d ever heard. She’d won 4 tickets to see a show at the Elizabeth Sneddon theatre. After phoning around Graham and Robyn agreed to join us, and we met at the theater for the “Crazy 80s”. The show is put …
The first of the Easter-time, long weekends has sadly come to an end. The good news is that it wasn’t wasted, as Sharon and I join Western and Karen for an awesome three days at Lotheni. Unfortunately, since we both have new jobs, we had to drive up early on Saturday morning rather than the …
