Today Daughter-dear and her Grandmother have started their journey to Australia. S2C and I took them to the airport very early – we left home at 6.15am. They are staying outside London for 24hours before setting off to Perth via Dubai. I will only feel happy when I know that they have arrived in Perth – but luckily I haven’t passed on my flying phobia to my daughter as far as I know.

It was lovely having the mother-in-law here for a week. The weather was fine all the time she was here, which was good. She and I pottered around most days, visiting a few places, shopping and having lunch with my Mum one day.

S2C, D-d, M-i-L and I went to the Wildlife Park for the evening on the Wednesday of her visit; they do a barbeque, and let you wander around the park in the evening. It was pretty quiet, and when we got to the walk-through lemur area the lemurs mobbed us as if they hadn’t seen a visitor in days, and wondered where we’d all been. There are some pictures under the cut:



We realized that the lemurs must have a thing for leather – they spent ages licking MiL’s handbag, and as you can see one was determined to have a go at d-d’s leather belt. Not a very good picture of my beloved husband – but it was such a nice one of the lemur….











PS - I posted Chapter fourteen of Ten Years After yesterday, which was a bit over due, and not my usual day, so this is a reminder in case you are reading it and missed the latest chapter.

Nice pics, critter and human! Hee - S2C and Frank have the same haircut! (I was thinking: "Where's the mullet?")

The mullet is long gone! The hair is too short for my taste at the moment, but is how he likes it. I like it better when it's grown about an inch!
