Our HBC article was featured in the St Helena Herald. I thought it might get some good coverage, but didn’t expect it would get a full front-page, full colour prominence! There it was, the cover story in today’s newspaper. We were quite excited to see it there.
Apart from that, today was quite ordinary. Did school with the boys, then went to town to pay our telephone bill, look for white enamel which I found, so I can finish my painting project some time soon, over to Spar for bread and mince, neither of which they had, then to the docks to collect our photocopier toner. Then up to the Half Tree Hollow Spar to see if I could get lucky with bread, since the bakery is right there. I was lucky, even got six very fresh rolls, so lunch was salami, cheese and tomato rolls. Made a stew for supper during the early part of the afternoon while Nick was out at prison, then we all went swimming at 4. The water was cold today though. It’s been exceptionally windy today, and last night, and the temperature has dropped by about two or three degrees. It was still hot, but not sweaty, sticky hot. We didn’t stay at the pool too long.
Coming into town from Half Tree Hollow, down Ladder Hill, my ears have to actually pop because it’s such a steep descent. Kind of like when you’re coming down to land in an aeroplane. Our car goes up the hills so nicely, and it’s a novelty having a hooter that works. Still no word on the golf, and apparently the lawnmower is kaput, but Teddy might be able to organize a new motor for it.
