The weather did a complete turnaround today from yesterday - not only was it rainy and grey, but it was really really cold too! Winter woolies out the cupboard again, heat pump and long socks on. I had a few deliveries and errands to run early morning (one of them was to drop off a photo I took of a lady I met at the lunch on Saturday - such a lovely lady, it was a pleasure to meet her), and then we were home for the rest of the morning and early afternoon. The boys occupied themselves with Lego and reading for the most part, and Nick was at the office working. We were invited to join the Phillips family at Andreas and Danielle's home for pancakes at 4 pm, and Nick got back from the church just in time to head out again. Andreas' pancakes are becoming legendary, and he had made bobotie as well. Yes, we are all impressed. Petru and I broke out of our typically gentle and quiet elders' wives selves when the temptation of too many pillows lying around was too strong to resist, er ahem.
After the Phillipsies had left we stayed on until surprisingly late; the boys found books to read and were amazing, keeping busy for hours while the grown-ups chatted. I'm still bowled over by the stunning view of Timaru the Bothas have from their lounge, conservatory, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom windows - they're on a bit of a hill with a 360 degree view of the town.
