The sister I never had and hubby Martyn spent the past two weeks with us. This lucky couple is just jetting everywhere now in their retirement so this year, they decided to come and visit us again in Ozland.
We did the usual, eat eat and eat almost every meal out and managed to do a few touristy things together. They have seen most of what Melbourne has to offer some 13 years ago. They missed out on the helicopter ride last time, so this trip, it was a mission for them to accomplish, so I made it happen for them. The helicopter tour of the 12 apostles only lasted 20 minutes, but I drove more than 10 hours that day down the GOR and came home inland. I even scored a speeding fine of $311 plus 3 demerit points on this leg of the trip!!!
CK managed to catch up with some other friends and her uncle as well, so it was a very fruitful trip for the both of them.
Gosh, I miss them so much and wish they were living down the road from me, just like the good old days when we were in the UK. The Fennemores would come down to Worthing to visit us every fortnight.
I learnt how to make the Sichuan Spicy Smoky Chicken and she learnt how to make my Simmatines. We both enjoy cooking, so it was fun to be able to spend time together in the kitchen when we were not dashing here and there!!! It was indeed very nice of them to come and visit and hope they will come again soon.
