Lunch Date with Rod and
Mary
   We spent a frustrating time trying to
get the cockpit radio back from a company that was supposed to have fixed a
dodgy wire. A lady spent half an hour finding the object that, as it happens,
has not spent a minute in any diagnostic hands....... Then the wicked witch took
us to a lighthouse so we made it to Rod and Mary’s (to return their car so
kindly leant to us) but made it by memory. It was wonderful then to receive such
a warm welcome and a tasty cup of coffee. Then a tour around the sun shades gave me a pattern for making our own for
Sleeping Indian at a snip of the price to have them made. Then it was out to
lunch.
   Rod drove us along the coast to the
outside seating of The Blue Peter. Rod and Mary shared mussels, Bear chicken livers and
I had mushrooms. A nice rose wine in great company with a gorgeous
view.
   Road and Mary enjoyed hake and chips, Bear had ribs and baked
potato and I had a huge bacon and avocado
salad.
 I stood on the edge of the patio and
Bear gathered Rod and Mary, what a view.
 My turn with Rod and
Mary.
    Back at the house I so enjoyed the
beautiful orchids.
 We chatted until Kate came home when
Bear’s eyes began to droop. I asked if we could have a picture of the four of us. Kate willingly agreed to be photographer
and Rod suggested we stand by a picture of the much beloved Sheer Tenacity.
Kate was worried the light from the left of us was to glaring so we stopped
to rearrange.
 Rearranged, with much giggling, a joyous picture.
 Rod offered to take us home, Kate and Mary with lovely smiles.
    Cape Town, traffic
and containers but what a backdrop.
 ALL IN ALL A SMASHING TIME
WITH WONDERFUL FRIENDS
SUCH A KIND FAMILY
