Bike jumps

Tuesday 13th October: Warm and sunny - a beautiful day. First thing this morning we sat in the living room and watched starlings flying into our block-shed with their mouths full of straw, busy building a nest inside.
We headed off early in the motorhome to Oamaru. I had a dental check-up while Steve took the boys to the skateboard park with their bikes. They had a fabulous time up and down the ramps in the sunshine. Then I sat and watched the boys while Steve went shopping in the DIY store across the road for curtain tracks. We got some junk food (hot dogs, crisps, biscuits and fizzy) for lunch and drove to the playground in the Public Gardens. The boys played while I put lunch together and we sat in the sunny park to eat.
After lunch we popped into a tile shop to look for wall tiles for the kitchen then returned to Waimate. We called into the rented house and did some cleaning then headed to the new house.
Steve did some sheep herding on his bike (not quite sure why, but he and the sheep were both amused, in different ways!). I cooked tea then unpacked two suitcases of clothes and some more bags of kitchen equipment. In the evening I went out to a Gym Club meeting and Steve and His friend Guy discussed turning our ram lamb into a wether but decided he'd be better as a roast at some later (but not-too-distant) date.
