curiouswombatToday 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.

Re: my goodness
Date: 27/07/2005 07:34 am (UTC)Yes!! One was sitting on a 'perch' which crossed the humans' walkway, right above S2C's head, and he commented that he'd better move in case it peed on him - just as he said it, that one and one at ground level by S2C's feet suddenly did their alarm call! Husband had to put his hands over his ears, Mum -in Law headed rapidly away from the noise, and my daughter and I stood clutching each other laughing ourselves silly - gasping out that it was all S2C's fault for insulting the lemur!!
VERY NOISY!
