Pete and Helen arrivePete and Helen arrivePete and Helen arrive

Dinner with some of the family the night the English arrived.
Well stuff it. I have found that the photos for the previous blog didn't publish so will put them on now. All my hard work gone into the big black hole that sometimes seems to be at the other end of my computor. You will have to look at the previous blog to read about Visits and Weddings.

Another high light from the things I want to do. Friday, I had a couple of spare hours in my busy schedule, he he, so I spent it in the Hutt River were I caught a nice 2 1/2lb Brown trout. My first trout out of the Hutt river for about 48 years. I was thrilled to pieces and as this river is only 15 minutes drive away, I will go there morre often.

Anyway here are photes belonging to the last blog.

You have to feel sorry for the photographer having to try to round this mob up. People moving, people hiding, people in the loo, and people unable to be found. A couple of good shots from this anyway.
