Up early to get Totty out before our golf as we thought it would be too hot for her after the lesson and it would have been. I think the vet must have hurt her bottom yesterday as she seems to be having trouble going to the loo.
We hit balls on the range and it is so peaceful out there, we did quite well, too.
We then went to our usual place for coffee but had to sit under the shade as it was so warm.
We went to buy some spray for around the outside doors and windows as we are getting a lot of cockroaches coming in. We decided to let Jon's company come and do it but we don't want inside doing.
While we were at the DIY shop Jon spotted a deckchair and decided to buy it for the deck, I have the lounger to sit on he only has the chairs from around the table.
We then went to the supermarket to buy him a steak as I am off out tonight to my keep fit class party. We then went into Tauranga and I bought a few bits to send to Heather for her birthday.
There was also a perfume and makeup sale on for the weekend in one of the empty shop units. I had been told they had some good offers so we went along. Handbags were not allowed so I had to leave mine at the entrance security just taking out my debit card for anything I might want to purchase, all very odd. I was then given a plastic bucket to put my shopping in. I bought two bottles of nail polish and some perfume all very much reduced. it was really busy and not Jon's idea of fun. Apparently they had been queueing to get in the day before!
I had bought some nice Merlot wine at the supermarket the other day, it was really cheap and turned out to be very good so we went back to buy more.
Amazing what you can get done when you make an early start but by now we were hungry so went home for lunch.
It was so hot we decided to stay home and sat on the deck reading. I gave some of the two boxes of Kiwi fruit that Jon brought home last night to our neighbour.
After a cup of tea I had a shower and got ready for the dinner/dance. My new dress looks very nice on. I picked Margaret up and we went to the Citizens Club. There weren't that many from our club which was a shame but there were other people there. I think a lot of our ladies are on their own and don't like to come out at night even though it isn't dark till 8.30.
The meal was very nice. I chose the fish stack which was scallop fritter and fried fish topped with smoked salmon and as much veg and salad as you could eat, really nice menu with lots to choose from.
After the dinner Diane's brother (class leader) has a group and he sang and everybody danced but proper danced, like ballroom stuff. It was like being at an old fashioned wedding but good fun and I enjoyed it more than I thought I would and was sitting with some very nice people.
I got home about 10.00 so not late. Unfortunately Jon had had a noisy night as our neighbours had fireworks which of course set Totty off and Jon had to close the door so he was not in the best mood. But our neighbours don't know the dog hates fireworks and you can't stop people having them - never mind.
