Brought Caleb and Josh home with us, where the four boys with Nick's help made a skateboard/bicycle ramp and got VERY dirty - awesome fun for them though. We took them back to Matt and Rachel in the afternoon, and I dragged Rachel out with me as I needed a girlfriend to help with shoe shopping - bought some sturdy boots for winter. I don't do cold very well and we can see already, in autumn, that our St Helena sub-tropical wardrobe is simply not going to be sufficient! We have never lived in a country that gets truly cold winters, so have been purchasing clothing made from Merino (100% wool, an NZ speciality) and polypropylene thermals which are known to be heat-trapping and quick drying. Have also had to invest in a few coats and woollen socks. Quickly learning about all things warm!

Soccer, boots
Attended Caleb Cameron's soccer game at the SBS Events Stadium this morning, which was a draw. Very Exciting watching them all run around after the ball. Sorry that I missed the netball that was going on at other bits of the stadium where some of 'our girls' were playing.
