Hooray for Fridays! Okay, maybe it doesn’t have exactly the same appeal as when I’m not on leave, but there’s still something special about it!

Last night I went to see our school play with my friend Philippa – and had quite an excellent time! The young cast had us in stitches of laughter for most of the evening. And as all good functions go, there were snacks during the interval! And no, that was not my main reason for attending…

After arriving home we experienced a terrific thunderstorm. Being all alone while house-sitting, it was up to me to comfort the petrified dogs. Shame. And I had to unplug every electrical appliance for fear of it being fried. So I was really bored… All I had left was my cellphone. Luckily a friend was online using MXit, which actually helped to keep me sane. Thanks, Jan!
