SATURDAY 17 OCTOBER     MOUNT SURPRISE

Today was hot again. The respite after rain does not last long.

We lazed about. John spent much of the day on the computer, but drove up to the store to hire a video to watch tonight.

I did some embroidery, sitting outside in the shade of the van and the little trees nearby.

I made Indian roti for lunch – yummy.

Later in the afternoon, we took Jo and Joe’s young son with us for a walk to the shops. He likes to mix with the visitors

Tea was steak, onions, baked potato and coleslaw.

John “died” over tea – fell asleep while he was eating! Two nights of staying up till dawn playing KKND have taken their toll – computer game lag! He went straight to bed. I read for a while.
