| 20th January 2008 Bob Lucas | At least you've got some sunshine! - From: On Base Hi Eon, Thanks for the up-date mate. It's been rain, rain, rain here. Very little in the way of sunshine, although I did see a nice sunset on the way home on the Gosport Ferry about ten days ago! The Navy are about to return to sea this week, mostly for warmer climbs, so that will empty the dockyard again. Kim came home for a quick stop over last night and went to Viv's b'day party. Her cast is causing her to be a bit gloomy, its on for the next two weeks. Barbara is about to take her back to Warminster. I think she's only got three weeks left there now. Every one is fairly well in Abbey House. Steve went up to London on Friday and blew the head gasket on his BMW! I think he's piggy backing an RAC truck tomorrow! Right then Bud, all the best and look forward to seeing the next dit and photos. Bob. |

Yes, Barbara and I were just thinking of our little hol in Cape Town. We did take the easy way up Table Top, via the cable-car. I don't think my legs would have taken even the easy way up. I've got to admit that your pod looks like something out of a kids transformer movie! Does it walk?! All the best on your birthday - we'll drink a toast to you. We're hoping Kim will be back from France by then. Hope you have a great summer down there. Don't work too hard (Ha!) |
