From Howick
14.3.89


Dear Alan, Lorna & Girls,

I am a bit late writing this week as we only came home on Saturday night. We spent 3 days at Kelso with Lionel, Debbie & family  & Neal, Vanessa & family & we had a super weekend never saw  the kids all weekend & the weather was heavenly  – after Kelso we went to the Hayes & spent another 3 heavenly days with them, then onto Sheila’s , where we stayed until Saturday. Lumgiar was in the army, but wanted to get home very night. He was only in for 7 days, actually he has been very pleasant lately.

                Cathy Jones had a 9lb baby 2 weeks ago – she has called her Tam-lyn, but she is a very colicky baby & Catherine is battling with her…………………………………….

                We went to visit Aunty Norah & Uncle Stan & who should pop on to visit but Aunty Grace Hansen – she has put Dawn into a home & she is also in an old age home at Richmond…………………………………………………………………………. 

                Lionel had an accident last night – he stopped to help someone – then showed them the way to go & hit a donga in the road & broke the windscreen with his head & face & bent the chains, which has pushed the engine back – so the car is out of commission & it is going to take a a long time to repair & cost a lot of money thousands in fact, but they are insured. Lionel has whiplash & a cut lip & bruised otherwise O.K.

                We are going to Durban on Saturday again for a few days as Neal is on leave & Daddy is going to help him to build – Sheila & Ronald & family are going to Cape Town for 2 weeks holiday. Jemma & Garrett are having their birthday parties this weekend.

                I made some assumptions & I am trying to make myself a dress but I have made it on the small side so will have to lose some weight.

                We have now had 10 days of summer, but hope it rains tonight. I have pulled all the beans out & made curry bean pickle & it is delicious. Well must sign off.
