Dear Alan, Lorna & Girls,
We have been on the go go go as usual. We went to Durbs to
look after Neal’s house while he was away & Jenny brought her kids down
for a few days & Sheila’s kids moved
in too – Lesley was most put out as IO didn’t take her kids too & jenny
only wanted me to have hers & then they could have all my attention well
with everything I blew my top & poor old Ronald got it from A-Z , anyway
Les phoned me & apologized &
said she was sorry & I told all of them that it was my prerogative to take
who & when I wanted to take the children & that none of them must just expect
to always have their children & that I could go where & when I pleased
& with whom, so after I got that off my chest we all enjoyed our week on
the beach as the weather was heavenly
& it was spring low tide so we went everyday to the beach after breakfast &
came home at lunch time & then the kids swam in Neal’s pool until bed time.
We left Neal’s early Thursday & cam e home & Debbie came & picked
us up & we all went to Jenny’s for Ester & it was really lovely. I went
to sunrise service with Jenny as she was playing the organ in the Anglican
Church & the weather was glorious so I took the kids to the river everyday.
We came back yesterday & now we are off to Southbroom tomorrow until Saturday
then I am hoping to see Dr & Jenny Browne who have just returned from Australia,
then I am hoping that Daddy will; say we can sleep at the Smallman’s in Scottburgh
then go & see Aunty Violet at Umkomaas & Uncle Fred at Illovo &
then to Durban for a few days then I hope we can stay at home for awhile. We
went to see Aunty Betty………………………………………………….the weather is beautiful again today
& I have been swimming & went to watch the Hilton to Howick steam train
go by. Lesley was going to aerobics & pulled 2 tendons in her arm so that
is in a sling for 3 weeks otherwise everyone is well. Nicholas is really cute
& ever so bright – when Debbie drove into our gates today he aid Nana I am
going to get your jersey off tomorrow. I’ll write again when I come back.
Tons
of love to each one of you from
Dad
& Mom
