Granny is cautiously excited

Hello All.

Where does the time go?
They say time flies when you are having fun.
That must be it.
NOT!

Back to the last post.
The waterless one.
On day two of our second water switch off I borrowed containers from my mate at work.
And brought home a hundred litres.
Then I went up to my cousin’s house and had a lovely shower and washed my hair.
Came home and, an hour later, they switched the water back on.
Go figure.

Why am I excited?
Wait and I will tell you.
Mex and I have hired a cottage for next weekend.
Outside a place called Port Alfred.
About an hour and a half from here.
The cottages are about fifty metres from a lovely beach (if their website is to be believed)
AND….we are taking Jasmine with us.
She is going to be such a happy doggy.

We plan to have a braai  (bbq) on Friday evening and we will buy pizza on Saturday night.
So, no cooking for me.
We will have leftovers on both mornings for breakfast.
I have bought paper plates.

Anyone with a direct line to the Man above….please arrange for nice weather.

The cottages are quite far apart from each other.
And surrounded by thick bush.
I am a little concerned about snakes etc.
But I have not said a word to Mex.
He will lock himself in the cottage for the whole weekend.
I will take loads of photos so brace yourselves.

We will be going in my car.
Mex does not like having PEOPLE in the back of his car.
Hair shedding dogs are not an option.
I am lucky he lets me in.

If anyone is interested this is the website of the place.

My boss spent the weekend there recently and he said it was great.
