Thursday

It feels like winter is back as it has been so cold the last couple of mornings. We were spoilt last week with the lovely warm, sunny snap let's hope it comes back soon.

I can't believe we are nearly at the end of another week and how fast the time is flying by.

Jon had a meeting down at the port today so didn't need to leave till 8.30.

I had some things to organise for Lions so spent a couple of hours on the computer before going out to do my shopping and to the post office. It looks like I am going to have to post all the stocking fillers I have bought for Heather as there is still no news on K&J's house so I don't think I will fit my trip in before Jon's surgery. We will need to get out thinking caps on as to what we will do.

I got home and had my lunch and did a few things around the house and before I knew it was time to go and see Alison.

We had a nice cuppa and a chat and then I got caught in a lot of traffic getting home. Not sure why it was all so busy as Jon said he was held up, too.

There was a message on the answer phone which I could not understand other than the phone number so I had to call and see who it was. It turned out to be the elderly lady who goes to my keep fit class and lived close to me and I give her a lift sometimes. She is going to Australia tomorrow for four weeks and asked me to check her mail box for junk as she has had her post held till she gets back. I suppose she doesn't want the box to fill up as she lives on the main road. I told her it would not be a problem and I would sort it for her.

The weather has turned very wet and windy tonight and the forecast for the next three days is not good. However, if Team NZ win the Americas Cup the whole of NZ will be celebrating and they have just one more race to wind tomorrow morning.

Cold with sunny spells 17 degrees
