Andy and Dee visit from England.


Had a visit from Andy and Dee from Warrington. Not seen them since we back in England, so we welcomed them in to our home. Had a bit of a surprise for them too, they expecting just us and another couple, instead there was a whole group of forumites turned up to have a chin wag and a bit of a party.
Did the usual Kiwi thing, bring a plate/bottle and I did a load of BBQ meat from the "Mad Butcher's" It was all last minute stuff but we managed to rustle up a decent crowd.

Poor Kieran came home from his school camp up in the Hauraki Gulf on Kawau Island, they had a brilliant time but he turned up looking pale and full of cold. Then he had to put up with a party in his house straight afterwards. He even played footy today, scoring the first goal and keeping goal making some great saves in the second half.
Louisa's team got back on winning ways with a 16-14 win in the netball. Andy and Dee came to collect their daughter Isla who stayed in ours overnight as they turned in at the local motel.

Totally worn out today though, need to catch up on my lack of sleep as I was awake at 5am and never really got back to sleep after that.
