Happy Valentine

Great drive over The Crown Range to Queenstown, surrounded by golden hills. Gemma and Lisa looking pretty fresh from their trip accross the world. They went down to Bremner Bay with the children and spent a long time down there building a clay castle. Will be going back tomorrow to check how well the clay has dried out and if it is of a suitable kind for making a pizza oven. Gemma has studied such things in building preservation course at Uni and Spook has read about making an oven out of clay in his 'Shed' magazine.
Sam came over from next door to show us his casual outfit for going to his girlfriends, mother's, wedding do. Spook had lent him his kilt, but we didn't know if he would have the confidence to wear it. He arrived, sporting a black shirt, DC skateboarder shoes and bare, brown legs. He looked great and only worry is that he may steal the show from the bride.
Spook and I left the children watching a movie and Tony, unwittingly, child-minding next door. We took a valentine stroll down to town. A beautiful balmy night and a quiet town - just the way I like it, but probably not good for the economy on a Saturday night.
