Ripping fun

Thursday 30th July: Today it was about 5 degrees outside when we woke up, and was sunny with a high of about 15 degrees with gusty winds.
First thing we went to Playcentre and the boys greatly enjoyed the opportunity to work on the woodwork bench with drills, hammers and screwdrivers. From there we drove to Oamaru for their swimming lessons. They did really well and Jonathan was delighted that he has moved up to the same group as his older brothers.
On the drive home we stopped for a wide load to pass. It was a small house on the move. We have heard that they move whole houses here but never seen it happening. Unfortunately although I had the camera in the car I couldn't grab it quickly enough to take a picture.
We drove to friend to drop off milk we had got at the supermarket and then on to our new house for half an hour. We stripped some wallpaper and fed the goat some hay and then had to scoot home to cook tea. We had pasta and tuna followed by a self-saucing chocolate cake. Jeanette arrived at 6 to look after the boys while I went to TKD and until Steve got in from work. She had them busy doing a 300 piece jigsaw of the world map.
TKD went well and Steve had a couple of calls during the evening. The flu has started to rear its ugly head here in Waimate.
