What we’ve been up to

Not a lot, as it turns out.  We decided not to attend the Drop-In Rally between Christmas and New Year this time, so this was a  quiet week at home.  Then, we just puddled about, a few little day trips, mainly because we were waiting on the mail for upcoming hospital appointments for each of us, really didn’t want to miss that.  My one came through, and Robin’s is still in the pipe line, as expected, he had been told his one would take a while.

We have been to the movies twice recently, I went to see “Blithe Spirit” with a friend, a piece of classic Noel Coward writing.  Then yesterday Robin and I went to see the Aussie film “The Dry”.  A little slow to start, but once it got going we found it really enjoyable.  Two crimes were solved (one current and one 20 years old) by a detective who returned home for his childhood friend's funeral after many years away   Well worth seeing, and we never picked “who dunnit” at all.

So now we are getting ready for our first trip away in 2021.  Our Jeep has been serviced last week, so that’s a job well done.  And Robin has been busy giving the caravan a wash today.  He started fairly early in the morning before the temperature reached the expected 25 degrees.  We will be away for three days  next weekend over Wellington Anniversary Weekend, not too far away, which is always a bonus.

It’s nice to spend time just pottering around home at times. We hope to see “The Dry” soon. We have read the book, so know whodunnit, but still look forward to seeing it very much. Enjoy your weekend away.
