Day Off

Tweet

Yesterday we reached the end of phase one of the bowling green board's replacements and were told we can have the day off. There are only eight full-time hands on workers doing this manual labour, but slowly we have gotten the job done. I am pleased with how it looks and tomorrow we start wheelbarrowing the topsoil with the fertilizers onto the Greens to await some water and the sunshine for growth. So I have the Day off - first I decided to catch up with all of the wonderful friends that left their calling cards while I have been busy - "Baie dankie" is Thank You in Afrikaans and if you want to say it correctly then this is what you do - just say "Buy a Donkey" and you have easily said your first Afrikaans word. I have some home chores to catch-up and then Game of Thrones episodes to watch before I get too far behind. With coffee in hand, sunshine breaking through the cool morning of 19*C, I bid you all a VERY GOOD MORNING. Happy Wednesday - and peace be with you wherever you are. My love and thoughts are with all those that were affected by the tragedy in Barcelona on the 17th August. To think I have walked the Las Ramblas many a time - very sad. Photo is from my visits.
