This morning we were out by 9 am to drop me off outside the canister with my jewellery to sell to the tourists. This year they were more willing to part with their dollars and I earned 70 of them, along with some Rands and Pounds. Nick had been at Good News Club and then at the manse for the final work party and came to fetch me shortly after 12. I got busy in the manse straight away, helping Brenda with the dusting and vacuuming upstairs. Steve and Maureen ordered pizza for lunch, and then we continued until about 2.30 when we were tired and fairly certain that the manse was clean. Nick was home only long enough to deliver our BBQ and charcoal to Rob and Clare and then headed out to Tammy, while I buttered four garlic loaves, did the blog, and prepared song sheets for tomorrow’s service. Nick was home by 5 and we went to the BBQ…Rob and Clare had arranged this as a farewell for us and it was a good evening of chatting (ladies with ladies and men with men, and ne’er the twain did meet, except while we were eating and at a few intervals when a man or two drifted inside for a while). The kids all had a great time running around outside especially when it got dark and the boys could scare the girls with the most frightful roaring and chasing.
