Meeting No 1 Greatgrandson


As a bonus to a great night out we were able to meet up with Kerry's grandson Taylor on the Sunday morning. It was lovely to meet his Mum, & to get to know Taylor a little over coffee on the terrace of the posh hotel. He is really an interesting boy with a great knowledge of Ancient Egypt & Greece. I told him that I would bring back a Greek book for him when I go back next year.

Emma's 21st Weekend

After 2 months of silence I thought I'd better return to cyberspace. After all the occasion of our granddaughter Emma's 21st demanded I do so. We traveled over to Hamilton last weekend to celebrate her day with Janine & Kerry. Kerry & Janine were staying in a luxury hotel by the river, while Bunny & I were at a budget motel not too far away. The only other time we've stayed in a motel in Hamilton was when Maurie graduated from Uni about 30 years ago, & what do you know, it was the same one! However, Hamilton today is totally different from those staid old days. It now has a pretty lively night life, & we had our little rave up at the Monkey Feather, where Emma works part time. All of us enjoyed ourselves, & thanks to my Crete nights out, I could handle a bit of techno with Janine. Bunny & Kerry preferred the Pool table. More pics on Picasa.
