Family ties

A week of sadness ... being with our Mum ....

.. and laughter ...

... my brothers and I were together after 12 years !!!!!!

My eldest brother, Richard and his wife, Pauline are out here from England to visit our Mum and for a short holiday in the beautiful Cape. They are, at the moment, 'wandering' around the Garden Route and 'hoping to get lost' !!! ... they really, really, really don't want to go back ...

It was special ...

  2. Its good to hear that you spent a good weekend with the family, even if part of it was a bit sad. Its always good to spent time with family. As for you brother getting lost on the Garden Route, why not? Its an awesome place.

    Ps. Did you tell you mom about Wimbledon?

  3. Family time is extra special - especially when you don't see each other all the time. Special hugs from CT today - I am glad to see the clouds are lifting. I might just take a walk along the Waterfront before heading off to an early night. I am shattered. Was up at 3.30 this morning. Flew into CT with the birds!
