Washing Day again!

The forecast was for showers today so I got my washing done early but the showers never came.

I had a call last night from a lady called Robyn who is a friend of Joan's, who I met last week. She had left a message as we were having dinner and I didn't get to the phone in time to answer it so I called her back today. She wanted to invite me to have coffee on Tuesday as it is Joan's birthday and a group of friends are all meeting up and Joan had suggested that I be invited. So I am off tomorrow across to the other side of Tauranga, I hope I can find it, to have coffee and a muffin!

The rest of today has been spent doing the housework. I find I only have to do housework and change the bed and do the washing one day a week which is quite nice - the ironing takes a bit longer though!

I have been reading up on the Coromandel and planning what we will see next weekend, we are really looking forward to it.

When Jon came home we took Totty out and it is amazing what a difference an hour makes. Rotary Park was getting quite dark and we decided not to go up into the woods. The "hoodie" man was there again using the bbq. Very odd, we wonder if he is sleeping down there but we have no idea how he gets there as there are no cars parked anywhere. It is a long way from the town, too far for him to walk. Whatever reason he is there for he makes me feel very uneasy - the first unfriendly looking person we have come across! I think from now we will have to use Te Whati Park until the nights start to draw out again.
