On December 27 th, guests Laurence Bracewell and Anna Kurtschenko arrived for their two night stay. After the initial settling in they decided to take our cycles and do a tour of some of the local wineries.    They were away for several hours and when they came back Anna proudly announced that Laurence had proposed to her and that they were now engaged.

Grandson’s Visit
Hi, I know its been a while but we have been very busy. Back in January it was Roberts Birthday and our eldest daughter decided to come home for a surprise visit and bring her youngest son Toby. Well, even if I do say so myself, I did a pretty good job of keeping the secret. On the 25th I told Robert that I had to go the shops so off I went, but to the airport. I picked up Amanda and Toby and came home. I sent Amanda up to the house first and as hoped, Robert was blown away – he said “what are you doing here”!   They stayed for four nights and we had a lovely time catching up and spending some wonderful time with Toby and Amanda had a well deserved break away from the rest of her family. Quite a successful few days. The only thing is that it seems like months ago and its only just over 3 weeks ago.
